If they're anything like Avnet UK, I wouldn't bother. I  had real
trouble placing a substantial order (UKP 2K) with them, as they
wouldn't set up a credit account , and don't accept cash with order!
Subsequent aggravation with multiple deliveries, zillions of invoices
& credit notes and not replacing returned faulty goods  puts them
right at the bottom of my distributor list!
