In summary, there are several great websites for purchasing electrical components, including DigiKey, Mouser, Jameco, and eBay. These websites have useful features such as filters and project managers, but may require specific knowledge of model numbers for efficient purchasing. Goldmine-elec-products.com is also a good option for purchasing a variety of random components.

Thanks for the sites guys for those of you reading I,m going to give a small review of each site

DigiKey.com - is very good if you know exatly what you want it has some really good filter so its easy to find just what you need.

jameco.com -very similer to digikey but needs pictures.

Mouser.com - it has some useful stuff like a project manager but the buying system is still like gigikey and jameco.

the buying system I see in these 3 sites are great if your reading schematics and know the exact model number you need if you just want a crap load of random stuff in gerneral goldmine-elec-products.com is good but all the above sites are great thanks guys
