WOW!!! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
It just doesn't get any better than these folks.
As a comparison, I recently placed an order with MATelectronics. I waited a week and heard nothing. When I called, I was told that some of the caps I ordered were not stocked anymore. Huh?
What about the rest? Why didn't they tell me? Plus, they have a $25 minimum order.
That's not really a big deal, since I use a LOT of caps and am constantly replacing my supply.

Enter Mouser. What a selection!! The website tells you how many they have in stock of each item, no minimum and instant confirmation of your order via e-mail. Prices are also excellent, and deeply discounted further when you buy in quantity.
I can't imagine anyone else will be getting my cap orders!

Couldn't be better !! Time Owned: N.A.
Today , 12 Feb, 2009, I found that one of the parts that was ordered arrived in three pieces instead of one. A power w/w resistor. I emailed the info and received a reply within 10 minutes stating that the replacement part would be sent next day air (!!) and will have it tomorrow. None cost to me for shipment. You can't get any better service than that !

I love Mouser Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I love Mouser.
I was in the initial stages of building a kit, and not getting any oscillation in the VFO. I was trying to trouble shoot the problem, when the leads from my power source (alligator clips) crossed...after the fourth of July ended, I hooked it back up to the battery, unfortunately, plus to minus, and visa versa. I wish I could say I was drunk when I did it, at least then I would have an excuse.
I went onto Mouser, and ordered all the transistors, electrolytic capacitors, and diodes that were probably fried...I could order individual capacitors, diodes, etc, for around 5 cents each...all told, it ran $1.26...What a world!

Excellent Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Absolutly excellent service! NO MINIMUM! The shipping rates are very reasoable and the service is blazing fast! I usualy prepare a large order with parts for few different projects to offset the shipping cost. Their online ordering system is excellent and very well executed! Mouser is one my primary sources of parts. They also send out nice big catalog!

I'm hooked. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Looks like I'm just going to add another echo to the praise of Mouser. I needed a couple of parts, neither the nearby industrial electronics supplier nor Cell Shack had what I desired.

Took a look at the Mouser web site and THEY HAD 'EM.
Was wondering what kind of minimum they had...NO MINIMUM!
Ordered them Friday morning, Fedex dropped the package off on Tuesday, Monday was MLK day.

Mouser thanks for the great experience, I'm hooked.

Good Return Service Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Courteous staff and extensive inventory. I got two items that I thought were the right items and they took them back no questions asked.

I would get their paper catalogue as I find it easier to find what I want.

Staying Alive Time Owned: more than 12 months.
About 10 orders in the last 5 years. All perfect. Small (under $50) orders arrive packed as if Joe De'M himself whacked them all the way. Seriously, the only problem I ever had with these guys was if the item I wanted was not listed in their catalog (sent often to me by airmail at what must be serious cost despite my small orders). I would highly recommend for international orders. A Far East (Hong Kong) buyer's viewpoint.

The best Time Owned: N.A.
I have ordered many times from Mouser and every time the order is correct and shipped very quickly. Most of my orders are very small but are processed like they are a $1000 sale! Great company to deal with.

The best. Time Owned: more than 12 months.
100% professional. Prices are low, no minumum order, reasonable shipping by whatever means you want. I order parts from two places these days -- Mouser and Digi-Key. Mouser gets about 75% of my business.

One of the real tests of a vendor is how they handle mistakes. Mouser usually ships everything correct and on time, but once in a while they'll grab a wrong part, or shipment will get delayed a day. In each case they resolve the problem the best way possible. Correct parts are shipped immediately, no waiting for you to return the wrong parts (if they even want them back). I've ordered parts shipped UPS ground, and had the order upgraded to 2-day or next-day at Mouser's expense if it got delayed. They're a top notch place to deal with.
