Where to buy electronic components?

[katanita]

Are there any shops that still sell electronics components, especially in ED or the surrounding area? Want to get some single LED lights that I can put into a basic circuit and maybe some other bits and bobs but no idea where to go. I know I can get them online but would ideally like to pick some up today. Thanks!

Taking it as read that you do mean components ... Some maybe useful negative information from a Google info panel, given that RS Online is in maintenance mode atm:

Try shop on east Dulwich grove opposite Dulwich hospital on the row of shops where pizza shop is. Not sure if open today.

Thanks all! Looks like RS Components would definitely do what I need but will try the closer ones first in case.

Maplins - I await with interest. "We're back and will be celebrating our website relaunch very soon!"

I was rather upset when they went under.

Yeah, apparently they are relaunching as an online only business at some point, which is a shame as they were often quite handy.
