Digi-Key has changed and it is not very good

And just like Amazon, Digikey also should sell dildos. Because why not.

Digi-Key needs to implement a review/rating system for components or suppliers/manufacturers, by account holders. This can help with marketplace quality control, albeit after the sale and a few guinea pigs have squeaked. You forgot to copy the usual 5-star system in your copying other e-commerce sites.

This whole corporate expansion seems so disjointed or too much too fast - the website is getting better but suffers gee it was so slow the other day 5 seconds to respond to clicks. A half-assed Marketplace rollout that just shows poor planning to the point of comedy. Approaching 10M items in the Product Index  :o

Digi-Key does have Tech Forums you know. They are kind of soulless as well, is it to be like the forums here for generic advice or specific component issues or what?
It's like the leadership is clueless about the soul of the company- was it service, selection, integrity, the small guy, the big inventory etc. it's all forgotten.

P.S. Please continue the pumpkin head tradition of 9 sig. digits on price, it keeps showing us how a multi-billion dollar company has clowns at the steering wheel.

I don't see it, even on Canadian version of the site. But also, is it going to be one more thing you have to flip every single time?

Alex Eisenhut:
You won't see it on the home page, but when you do a search it will pop in its own frame over the search results.
