I disagree.

Part numbers can be very helpful, if you're not located in the United 
States. I am located in Sweden, and I have had to order some parts 
directly from Elecraft since I have not been able to find spare parts 
of those particular types here in Sweden.

But when it is possible to order parts locally, When buying from 
Elecraft, I have to deal with the  sometimes unreliable postal 
services, and high shipping costs.

That said -- Elecraft have given me very good treatment when ordering 
parts. The time when some parts were lost in the mail, they re-shipped 
the parts with no charge to me, and without any fuss. (Still waiting 
for the second shipment -- I'm crossing my fingers. :-)

Bottom line -- I live in Sweden, and when possible I prefer to shop 
locally if I can to avoid having to pay and wait for international 
shipping, but when I have been forced to turn to Elecraft -- their 
performance is flawless.
