Dealing with avionics part delays - do you stockpile or wait it out?

One camp keeps a stash of common parts to avoid downtime, but that ties up cash and space. The other orders as needed, accepting the wait. Which approach saves more headaches in the long run?

Wow, paul286 finally convinced me to keep a spare parts shelf.

That spare parts shelf idea is great, mine's just a pile of stuff I'm too lazy to fix.

Stockpile the parts you know always fail. The downtime costs way more than the cash tied up in a small shelf of spares.
