I find ITS london pretty good for tools reasonably priced next day delivery and always some deal going on if you spend certain amounts

For parts, I prefer to use a supplier that has either printed catalog with prices, or an online catalog with prices - that are the actual prices you pay. So I tend to use TLC and Electricfix a lot.

In the past I've approached a few suppliers where either there is a catalog or web site with very expensive prices, but a variable discount depending on how nice they are feeling, or no prices at all and "Dave" or whoever "will look after you". In this day and age, I fail to understand how anyone would do business with a supplier like that - I need to know in advance what stuff will cost, to send out an estimate, and I don't want to have to ring someone up every time I want to check.
