I do most of my ordering from Main because they carry most everything (except for kits). If you want kits, KP Components in Surrey BC is the best place for those. Email him at kpcomponents@xxxxxxxxx and ask him to send you one of his flyers. He carries only the most popular parts, though.

Globals price on the kit with transistor was $12.50, when they had it. Gary did Jason at Excel have these? Maybe if a few guys need then we could order several and reship them. Or what about Main Electronics in Vancover?
