Digikey electronics?

A long shot but anyone here ever deal with this crowd?
https://www.digikey.co.uk/

i know they are an American company and that's where your parts would ship from, i also understand there will be a customs charge when it gets here but for what i require its cumming in cheaper than anyone else, mouser, rs , farnell and such.
on this job i require deutsch connectors which i can get from RS but even tho i use them quite a bit for other items i don't feel the necessity to be buying 100 of something when i really only need 3 or 4 of them, i mean, ill take 10 of them but not 100 its blowing the price out of the water.

So i came across digi-key on google, they sell al items individually which suits my job at hand and is great, but nearly too great im thinking so that's why i was asking.

Anyone here ever dealt with them?, the reviews, or the ones i came across at least aren't inspiring.
@Pheasant Surprise maybe.

I have used them in the past. Bought some barrel connectors from them. They were fine. It was only a small pack, paid the VAT. No extra customs charge. UPS delivery charge was £12

We used to use them a lot in the Uni. Have bought a few things from them recently but we've been more or less banned from using them due to shipping charges. There's very few things they sell that RS, Farnell or Mouser don't.

If you want a few Deutsch connectors @Graham Smith will supply these to you in small (or indeed large) quantities.

Thanks @Pheasant Surprise

@tinman I sell the Deutsch connectors. I stock the DT, DTM and DTP series and also get in any other options for customers. I also sell Deutsch kits which may be more useful, they can be supplied with a crimp tool. Below is a link to them:
