That would prevent them from making money without doing any work at all. The capitalist dream all in one checkbox. |

This whole marketplace thing does not give me a warm, fuzzy feeling. There is certainly a level of trust with Digi-Key that you won't get dodgy counterfeit parts. But opening things up to third parties... I just don't feel comfortable with it. It's the narrow end of the wedge. The way I see it... I go to Digi-Key to buy from Digi-Key. Just not a fan of this "Amazonification" of things. --- End quote --- The first time I accidentally order something from some random marketplace vendor when I was trying to order from Digikey is the last time I try ordering anything from Digikey. Either turn it off by default, or provide a way for me to turn it off so that it stays off. |

Do they have rules/policies to vet marketplace vendors? Did they explain this anywhere? |
