I used Rapid Electronics several times for a project a couple of years ago and found them to be excellent, swift and very reliable. I have just received an order from them for the first time in a while and I am please to report that their service is just the same as before, absolutely first class. My components were particularly well packed and protected inside a much larger box, bigger than necessary really but I'm not complaining! I recommended Rapid Electronics to a close technical associate a while ago and he uses them regularly now too. He is also very happy with the service he has received from them.
