Padre wrotemesa177 wroteIs it a regular computer parts store or does is have an electronics department? (please say yes, and that you'll bring in cool SMD parts and some hard-to-find electronics from Digikey *dreaming about the possibilities*)
Just order then to leb ?
I always do that.
Hence the request Padre, every time I need something like a DB3 36V 2A diac or a SMD transistor, I have to go order them from RS On-line, wait like 10 days for the part to come in, and pay 10% VAT plus 20% shipment. What starts as a 1$ per piece ends up becoming 1.5$ per piece, and some parts you have to order a minimum of 5 or 10 cause that's how they sell them. It's frustrating. Ordering from Digikey is even worse cause I have to wait like 2 or 3 weeks till the parts arrive (can't afford to keep a customer waiting that long at all times, especially when it's a ventilator or an OR's sterilizing machine). Katranji doesn't sell all kinds of SMD, and other stores like Boujikian and Kanafani simply don't deal with them. There's even an electronics technician in Saida where I work whose specialty is SMD boards, and even he doesn't have all the parts I look for (or even their equivalents).
