As it is now, I shop with Farnell, Futurlec, Jaycar, and DSE with the
odd order to DigiKey.

Are there any others that I can add to my list? Even ones where I can
walk into. I am based in Brisbane.

How is Digikey for postage costs? Have a look at Sparkfun Electronics (http://www.sparkfun.com/), they got some stuff that others don't have.

My last personal Digikey order was US$34.10 postage + $6 handling for
international orders using the USPS option, package was 1LB 9OZ. Now
with the Aussie bleeder having plummeted recently, not as good a value
as it used to be.
With the USPS option, you don't know the price until they have packed
and shipped it, so you take your chances a bit.

For work order I use courier of course but it's more expensive.

I have 400+ specialized products sourced from all over the world, aimed
mainly at micro hardware and software. In many cases, you will only find
these items at Dontronics.

I am moving away from general components, and have many of these types
of these items on special to clear stock.

I have not ordered yet through them. I usually keep the oversea's
stores to a last resort if I cannot find what I want locally.

One thing I noticed about SparkFun, their tutorials are very good.
