DIYers: alternative to Small Bear?

[NickInMesa]

What other Web site would you recommend for your pedal gear, as well as for the usual stuff (Caps, trimpots, pots, etc...)?

I did have a great direct contact with the owner and he knows pedal design.

But I find Small Bear to be a bit pricey and also his Web site slows down as you add parts to your shopping cart to the point where it is ridiculously slow.

Thanks!

I just used Mouser last week to order some transistors that smallbear didn't have, and found their prices good, and the shipping was lightning fast.

If PPP doesn't have it, I get it from Mouser. Mouser is huge and has EVERYTHING!!! PPP are small and personable... I prefer to deal with people when I can.

Re-Lol: I just saw where www.web-tronics.com was located !

Just a little price analysis on a pedal specific item, in this case a 3PDT foot switch:

Phonekings.com: $5.69

tubesandmore.com: $6.95

pedalpartsplus.com: $3.80

smallbearelec.com: $9.00

Mouse, digikey, newark: no such item or way overpriced.

Note I could also look at the price of specific caps or for a good assortment of resistors, pots, etc...
