I often use Conrad for its huge collection of small parts (mechanical as well as semiconductors) most of which can be ordered individually, with an interface with lots of filters and easy access to manuals and data sheets. Sometimes their categorization is a bit off, and they don't have CAD files, but it's decent enough.

Conrad is a shitshow in my country.

- Almost nothing is on stock, most items have 10+ weeks backorder time.

- Ridiculously expensive, its common to find 2x prices than in other shops.

- Full with Chinesium crap (but some high quality items too), one can never be sure what they will get.

Its like a shitty Aliexpress

LOL. I discovered Conrad before I found out about AliExpress. I thought AE was a shitty Conrad with much better pricing but slower delivery.
