# Tips for buying electronic components
Unless you are buying a pre-packaged kit, buying electronic components can be a bit of a pain. It means scrolling through electronics websites, peering at item listings which often don't have photos and are a bit unclear. In the past I have:
* Ordered entirely the wrong kind of IC for a Stitch Synth module because it had one additional letter in its name
* Ordered 50 of a component instead of 5, because it wasn't clear that putting 'one' component in my shopping basket meant 'one set of 10'
One thing that helps is to look at the datasheet of the thing you're trying to buy.
