[sdiy] UK guys - Rapid EndLine Sale Today!

[karl dalen]

Yes i know, i just ironized over all these *kind* component suppliers! :)

I usually have a 30 days account, i have the regular private
shit with Rapid i have just not bought any from them yet.

I just wanted to hear what kind of mental stress habits they apply
on their customers? split orders, things that donot appear on sceduled time, lame excuses, worng delivered components, customs, etc, etc,
you know, the regular daily hassle and stress factor?

They all do, futurlec, digikey, farnell, Rs you name it, they threat you
accordingly to a internal ranking list named *buying potential*, the less
you buy the less they are interested in you, market fundamentals.
