I absolutely refuse to purchase radial lytic caps online from any supplier. Ebay, mouser, digikey...whatever. The only exception if I'm really desperate is from Topcat over on Badcaps.net but his prices are a little steep. Unless you are way out in the middle of Buttsland you can get them at your local electronics shop and you can at least visually inspect them before you purchase.
