ChipDip
Sells everything.
Local (SPB) stocks are huge and usually up-to-date.
Great prices for passive components and ICs.
Tolerable for Connectors and PSUs.
Awful for everything else. Prefer other shops whenever possible.
Moderate transport availability.

Nearby — a few minutes walk from Pionerskaya metro station.
Perhaps, the lowest price for RF-connectors in SPB available without prior ordering.
Website is terrible.
Stock is frequently out-of-sync, so it’s better to place an online order before going.
