Jameco Lowers Prices on More Than 80,000 Electronic Components


Belmont, CA – Nov. 12, 2008 Jameco electronics lowered prices on more than 80,000 electronic components by 10 to 40 percent today, further extending the company's position as the industry's low-price leader.

The price reductions are on top of Jameco's tiered pricing strategy, which offers customers three distinct pricing options: (one) name-brand, (two) house-brand, and (three) factory-overrun electronic components. When combined with the company's low-price guarantee, this pricing strategy clearly makes Jameco the low-price leader for electronic components such as digital and analog semiconductors, passives, interconnects, electromechanical, power supplies, fans, prototype/design, test equipment and tools.

"Historically we have priced our products under our competition but, in these tight economic times, we recognize that price is even more important," said Greg Harris, Jameco's vice president of marketing. "In addition to these price reductions we offer house-brand products and factory-overruns that can be an additional 20 to 50 percent below comparable brand-name products," he added.

All Jameco products are backed by the company's low-price guarantee. If customers ever find a published price that's lower than an identical Jameco product, Jameco will not only meet that price, but beat it by an additional 10 percent, right down to the company's cost.

All Jameco products also come with a 30-day return policy and a 90-day Jameco warranty against any manufacturing defects. The Jameco house-brand products – the Jameco ValuePro™ line of professional-grade passive, electromechanical and interconnect products; the Jameco ReliaPro™ line of reliable power supplies and motors; and the Jameco BenchPro™ line of professional-grade workbench tools – all come with a one-year warranty.
