This place is a throwback to when I was a kid and made electronic projects. Large selection of parts, pieces, connectors, switches, and whatever else you need to build that perfect robot.

Neat hidden gem for hardware lovers and workers. When I was in there, I was there for parts to build a keyboard, another guy was there for parts to build guitar pedals, and another guy was a mechanic getting specialty tools and wires to salvage the computer in a car engine at his dealership. Extremely diverse selection of tools. Some similar, but also more than, the selection at MicroCenter, though I believe between both stores you can build just about any electronic. The young man who was working the desk is extremely knowledgeable. Definitely check it out.

I went in hoping for some help with some obscure parts I bought online. I was not at all disappointed! Staff were able to locate exactly what I needed to keep my projects alive. I was thoroughly impressed with staff knowledge. What they dont carry they can order but that has not been necessary.I am very grateful for this business. I plan on coming here for many more future projects. I will be checking here before going to anyone else. Excellent resource!!

I was clueless about this little gem of an electronics supplies store. Yes, indeed there one gaggle of electronic parts from resisters, transistors, mechanical parts and much more that I didnt get a chance to parse through. This should be an electronics hackers 1st stop for parts for a new circuit or to repair an existing device. The folks are friendly and helpful. The knowledge of products is evident here. Go, you wont be disappointed, Yes, Virginia, there is an electronics parts store in Columbus!

I love this place.Its a great place to go for all those hard to find (other than ordering online) little electronics parts.Its just a small hole-in-the-wall shop but is completely packed with items that both an electronic engineer and a simpleton like me just looking for a 12V DC momentary switch can appreciate.The employees always seem to be friendly and helpful.

This is what Radio Shack used to be back in the day and more. Im thankful that there is a place where I can get all the little components for projects and the tools to accomplish them. Nice and knowledgeable people. Go here and support our local brick and mortar store.

If you need hard to find electronic parts this is the place for you. I was restoring a cassette deck on a vintage boombox and they actually had the belt that I needed to do the repair! If you like to restore old and new electronics this is the place to go to get the parts. Very helpful staff and very knowledgeable. 5 stars baby!!

Decent selection, and the staff was helpful (I say staff but it was just the one clerk). I dinged a couple of stars because its not the best organized with a lot of empty spaces on the hooks where parts have sold out and apparently never been restocked, and some of the components look like theyve been sitting on the shelf for years, plus the prices printed on items are not entirely accurate. For instance, a small package of resistors was marked $2.89, but the receipt said $4.89. Still a good deal, but its not what I thought I was paying. This happened with at least one other item. Unfortunately, I didnt catch it until I got home, so be sure to double check the prices before you leave.

Imagine RadioShack if they did not sell cellphones and only sold electronics. This place is great. Huge inventory. Always helpful.

A good place for last minute parts. Be sure you know what you need though. They do not generally have stepper motors or microcontrollers. Theyre usually happy enough to order it for you, but... (Edit 2018) they now carry Arduino parts and are starting to cover open source electronics (limited). Just went back for caps and mosfets and I found better stuff than I was hoping to buy. Still do you homework before shopping, they will definitely appreciate it.
