Very sure, since I had to report this on Thursday last. Was just about to lob in a Raspberry Pi and show you, but the World's Lousiest Ecommerce Site bounced me out completely, sent me to cpcireland.farnell.com, logged me out and now wants me to reregister there solely to show you a GIF. Sorry, but not worth it. You're just going to have to believe me.
- Fuxy 13y agoI can confirm that Element 14 in the UK sucks. I somehow managed to order a RPi from them a year ago without trouble but after taking more then 2 and a half weeks to even bother to ship it i just cancelled the damn thing and bought it off Amazon. Luckily now i know of a lot more small and helpful websites that would ship stuff in a decent time frame. Can't avoid using them for more specialized part unfortunately. Don't expect much from them though.
- stephen_g 13y agoThat's strange - their shipping is incredible in Australia - you order something before 6pm and it shows up by courier the next day if it's in stock (the website tells you how much of each part they have in each warehouse, and how long it would take to ship). That used to be for any price - but now you have to pay postage for orders under $50. Before that, I once bought $15 of parts including a $6 micro controller, which was in stock in the US. I got everything else courier end the next day, and then the micro controller three days later. You do pay for it though - you can get things half the price other places, but it's awesome for quick prototyping.
