Parts Catalogs,who has the best one?
« on: January 03, 2016, 09:30:40 pm »
I personally hate going back and forth between web pages and I really like old fashioned paper at times and I was wondering who has the best catalog?

I guess we could break it into free and paid sections.

I just received one from Element 14 and it makes a NYC phone book look small :D but I'm open to others.

Thanks

RS only offer the paper one as an option, you pay postage. I do keep old ones, makes it easy to find stuff they have which is not easy on the website. Then you look up the part number to confirm price and delivery. Almost have enough to make a footstool with.

Thanks,I'll definitely take a look and see if they'll throw one in a order.

I honestly forgot that I filled out a request for the Newark/Element 14 one and I was truly surprised to see it on my doorstep.I actually thought it was a box of parts at first  :popcorn: When I ordered it I just expected the bare minimum 1-200 pages or so that most companies do these days and not a close to 2500 page footstool.I've only ordered a few things from them but definitely no complaints thus far.  :-+

At work I have 3 monitors so it isnt too bad but at home I just get lost on the websites even looking at simple things like connectors.

Thanks again
