Capacitors, resistors, diodes,scrs etc. in Business, Office & Industrial, Just WRONG!

[electroplasmatica]

Such a poor selection of electronic parts here compared to FeeBay, probably because some people don't know where to look.

Should be in something like 'Hobby Electronics' or 'Electronic components and parts'

It has nothing to do with Business, nothing to do with Office, nothing to do with industrial.

People repairing radios or making a timer or a LED flasher and are looking for resistors or LEDS just don't look in the 'Business, Office & Industrial' category.
I know I don't.

Thank you.

Why not make a suggestion yourself of how you would like to see it (in it's logical category format)?

Before you do, you need to read the 'instructions' first:

Perhaps instead of being under 'Business, Office & Industrial'
with a child category that goes
'Industrial : Electrical & Test Equipment : Components and Supplies : ******,
perhaps there should be

A parent category called 'Electronics and Electrical parts and equipment'
With a child of
LEDS
Resistors
breadboards
various electronic components
Video games and consoles
cellphones
lighting

Something that the average Joe and Jane scrolls through when they are looking for that stuff, they are not looking for industrial supplies, like jackhammers and plastic moulding machines, they are looking for colourful blinking lights and cellphones or a replacement capacitor for that old 1920's radio.

After review we are keeping the categories as they currently stand. They do not differ substantially to our main competitor sites.
