Source for surface mount LEDs
tetsujin:
E-Bay is a great place to buy all kinds of LEDs, particularly surface mount, superbright, etc.
All Electronics is a good place to buy various things (and a poor place to buy other things.) They have a reasonably good selection of 3mm and 5mm LEDs as well as panel-mount holders for them.
If you're just buying a few, though, Radio Shack's convenience could easily be worth their lousy prices if they've got what you want.

Here's a Mouser (www.mouser.com) part number I use for surface mount LEDS: # 512-QTLP670CR

Exaggerate much? :)

Package of 2 LEDs with chrome panel mount holders, $2.39. And if you're getting it in your local store, you're not paying shipping.

I bought a pack of 20 leds yesterday for $3.99 from Radioshack. They had a pretty good selection of surface mount leds.

Do you mean panel-mount LEDs? I don't think Radio Shack carries surface-mount components of any kind.
