Hi all. I have a little home project that i am working on and i will require some resistos. Does anyone know where i can find some localy? I’d much rather have to run to some place a few times a day than wait for a few days while my online order gets here. So how about it? Any ideas? ---

Radio Equipment Corp on Vulcan in Tonawanda. Has a decent selection. I picked up my DB9 adapter and some resistors from there. If you only need a few its better than ordering online and paying $10 to ship a 2 oz package. ---

If you only need a few its better than ordering online and paying $10 to ship a 2 oz package. That place was sketchy as hell when I went there looking for a part. I don’t think they were open at the time, but it seemed hard to tell. I’ve been told they have a lot though. Just never been in the place and only went there once. ---

Ya they are usually helpful tho. Its just a like a warehouse in some ways. The guys seem to know what they are doing. Lots of times I just brought in a list of stuff I needed and they walked around and grabbed it. ---

Lots of times I just brought in a list of stuff I needed and they walked around and grabbed it. Yeah I have heard great things about them. Just when I saw the sign that said “entrance in back” then a shady white van on the side and shoddy parking lot with no real sign of an entrance, it just didn’t feel right. ---

Yeah, it’s more of a warehouse place not too terribly customer friendly in appearance but they’ll pretty much have anything you need. ---
