Tayda Electronics, Bangkok, Thailand.
>From what I can see… · Doing business for over 10 years. · Seems quite reputable. Rated high at eHam.net. resellerratings.com rates at 9.7 out of 10. · Low prices – even for single items. · Somewhat limited selection (depending upon your needs). There have been a few old complaints about some component quality. · Web site and payment mechanism seem secure. SSL certificate is Amazon verified. Uses 128 bit TLS encryption with HTTPS connection. · Web provides reasonably flexible shopping cart, account management, search, wishlist, order tracking, and return management functionality. · Total order minimum is $5. But no quantify minimum. Any number of individual discrete components (like resistors, capacitors) can be ordered. · To make a purchase you must register by creating an account (providing at least full name and email address). Account password creation is security code protected. · Remittance is via PayPal from the Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express credit card of your choice. You do not have to log in to PayPal to do this. · You cannot change your order after placing it, but it can be cancelled if not yet shipped. · Shipping is from warehouses in Thailand, Singapore, and/or Colorado – usually within one business day. · Very low standard 7 to 16 day delivery shipping charge (appears to be near cost). More expensive for DHL/UPS 2 to 4 day delivery, as expected. · Packaging is in antistatic bags, as appropriate. · 100% satisfaction guarantee. Returns accepted, with refund. · Seemingly responsive customer service. · “Contact us” is provided via a secured Web interface. Telephone number (not 800) and email address are also published. · Discounts/coupons appear frequently on their Facebook page. e.g., currently 15% discount code (sale15) through 7/4. Appears that 15% discount is available most of the time. · Ability to enter discount code appears on shopping cart order pages. · Shipping options/cost calculated automatically from entered country/state/postal code information before checkout. All in all, Tayda seems to be a really convenient, inexpensive, and safe parts source option for makers and hobbyists. Note: I have absolutely no association with or personal interest in this company. Just intrigued by Martin’s find.
