Yes: I also use LCSC, but shipping costs and delivery times can cause me problems
Mouser: good product range (etc) to the point of resembling a DigiKey clone ... but the same 'USA based' problem

TME are great, but after Brexit shipping from the EU can be a bit random

Bit of a general query (to others of similar experience and skills)
.
I mostly source components from DigiKey
(I used to use RS and Farnell mostly, but both the service and stock levels have declined markedly)
So what other catalogue distributors are there out there that are not based in the USA?
