You need to qualify the question some more. Do you mean in Oz (where you appear to be posting from) or worldwide? What sort of components are you generally requiring?

For example, I use: . WES Components . Altronics . Jaycar . Worldwide Electronic Components . Futurlec . Wiltronics and others, depending on just *what* I'm sourcing.

Then there's Rockby, .....

What sort of quantity?

Those companies in Australia are small fry compared to the bigger companies overseas. Qty doesn't matter.

So what? If they have the component you want at the price you want in the qty you want, why does it matter?

Qty does matter. There can be a big difference between buying 1 part or 10,000 parts on reels for high volume manufacture.

Dave.

Because the small fry don't have the component I want, only the bigger companies overseas. Iam just enquiring if there are any other bigger companies overseas than the ones I already know.

cheers

Pity you didn't reveal that in your original post.
