Who is your favorite parts suppliers?

[Chuck H]

Cool. Reminds me of the old days. Of course, back then in the 1960s, there were several well stocked electronics stores in town. One of them catered to pro repair shops but would also sell to me, a high school kid building guitar amps. The mail order service time back then was similar to the 18 days you experienced. One to three day delivery was pretty much unheard of.

Those were some days, right? I always did most of my work ordering parts but the brick and mortar stores saved my bacon often enough that I came to count on them to a degree. I really do miss this service in the craft we persue.
