Cheap parts in the UK? (enclosures, pots, caps etc.)

[DutchMF]

Hey guys,

A friend of mine from the UK is coming over in a couple of weeks, can anyone recommend a cheap UK parts-source from which I can order and let them ship it to his house so he can bring it with him and save me some international shipping? Or are the prices not so low as this to be an advantage over, say, Mouser? Thanx in advance!

Farnell is good; its the UK version of Mouser/Digikey.

Doctor Tweek is good and cheap. Also, bits box is good and cheap.

Also, all of these places ship quickly and have excellent customer service.

The three above are pretty much where I buy everything that I need from.

Hope that helps!
