Why is ordering from CPC/Farnell such hard work?

Oh and Maplins were helpful: I phoned up their shop to ask if they had
0.2" Molexes in, described the sort of thing, yes they have, some suitable
sized shells and inserts, off I go driving across town in the rush hour.
What have they got? Only 0.1" ones. Bar stewards. I have now spent the
better part of my afternoon & evening trying to get a handful of bits of
plastic and tin whose actual material and production cost is probably
about 10p :-(
Always check Maplins' website - it shows stock levels in shops. Then
you have to ask for the item in the shop as it may be in the storeroom
and not on display.
