 Thanks to the ease of creating webshops, many manufacturers will sell parts to you directly at low cost! This can be cheaper and easier than Digikey, or Mouser especially in larger quantities.

 Linear Technology has some of the best integrated switcher chips available (IMO :P) and now you can buy them direct. Login required, but its simple to get.  They carry some parts that DigiKey does not, mostly the newer ones.  Prices are good and they even do price breaks when/if you want to order quantities of 100 or so. Linear Technology has some of the best integrated switcher chips available (IMO :P) and now you can buy them direct.

 +Microchip sells directly and generally has better prices than their distributors. Single pieces often list for less than Mouser/​Digikey/​Newark charge for 25+. Shipping appears to be a flat $13 via FedEx. Out of stock products may have a lead time.
