You're right about the business model, but it was nice to have a place to go for an emergency item. I guess to the uninformed RS customer, two resistors for $2.99 seemed pretty cheap, when in fact you can get 100 for a dollar at any real supplier. What stuff they do sell is still overpriced. I was looking for a couple of male spade connectors (clerk had no idea what I was talking about), and eventually found an assorted pack that contained two for about $4. I needed 5, so it would have been $12, meanwhile I could probably get a shoebox size bag full of them for that price at an electrical wholesaler.
