Parts ordering

[bollin]

I was searching for parts online, and as it seems the only reliable source for parts for me is digikey (I live in Finland).
However, thay charge 18€ shipping unless the order is over 65 €, then they ship for free.
If I were to order parts from digikey, I would like to order a few of many different IC:s, FETS and whatever I could need for laptop repairs. Since I don´t have that much experience repairing laptops, thus I can´t really tell which parts are common in laptops. TPS51117 seems to be one chip that is widely used, but can anyone add to that list?

Have you looked at rsonline I have had a play but dont understand Finnish
if you opt for 2-3 delivery does the post drop a lot?

Re: Parts ordering

Yes, that seems like an alternative. Shipping is a bit cheaper, and the 2-3 day option is for collecting at store. I live quite far away from Espoo, so I can´t pick up my order from there. Thanks for the tip, though!
