I disagree! It depends on which store you go to. In some, the
manager chooses to neglect the electronic components.
In others, they have a complete selection of the
catalog components. I frequently go to "Rodeo Shark" to
get components when engineering something. However,
I would NEVER ship production stuff using their parts,
since I have found a few that
were of low quality.
