The store runners are super helpful and friendly and helped me find exactly what I was looking for! (VGA-to-HDMI converter cable) Money well spent in a local business thats been in town for ~75 years!

Friendly and very helpful! They told me when I did NOT need something. The guy said, I can sell it to you, but honestly, you dont need it. That honesty deserves 10 stars! Thank you!

If you need something in a hurry (or just good advice) this is the place to go! Ive shopped with them for over twenty years. I trust them 100%. You can quote me: Raj Seshu (Lafayette)

I have been coming to this place for over 15 years. I used to be able to find all of the parts and knowledge that I was looking for. the employees used to be very knowledgeable and happy to help in any way and would often make suggestions of different products they had in the store. Over my past few visits I have been very disappointed. I came in today to get a simple soldering job because my soldering iron is broken. I was asking them to solder two wires together and splice them for childrens toy battery pack. I am done this several times in the past. today they could barely peel themselves away from whatever they were doing before I came in. the younger employee behind the counter told me he was no good at soldering and this is something they thought they were not able to do because nobody there could solder. instead he scribbled down Ron cell phone number and handed it to me...definitely not what I pictured Lafayette Electronics turning into. Its pretty disappointing. after he handed me a piece of paper with a phone number on it he continued to work on whatever he was working on. iron start wandering the aisles and found a butt splice connector that would accomplish the job. instead of recommending them to me he just threw business out the door. I have long enjoyed coming to this place to get items for work or for school, but the past four times that Ive been here they have not had what I needed or Im treated with service like I mentioned above. I really hate leaving bad reviews but I am so taken aback by this I felt it necessary to share.

I was pretty excited to learn a town as small as Lafayette had a small electronics store like this. I went a little over a month ago looking for some odd value capacitors to repair my LCD monitor. The staff was somewhat helpful- there were three employees in the store and they seemed to just be hanging out. Honestly, I felt a little like I interrupted them by walking in.They didnt have the part I wanted in stock, which was not surprising or unexpected, it was an uncommon value. They suggested I try to order it online. I figured Id ask if they could order it for me, and they said sure and then they took my name and number. I never heard from them again.If you need a common component or cable, you could try them out, their stock isnt too bad and they seemed to know what they were talking about. But unless you are in a pinch, Id pass on them and just go online or head over to Radio Shack. The atmosphere in the store was a bit unfriendly, and I have better places to spend my money than at a place that didnt seem to really care.

In a post radio shack world its become very hard to find those odds and ends electronic parts that you need. The store is well stocked and the staff are knowledgeable. Definitely my first stop when I have need of parts, wish Id have known about this place earlier!

LES has helped us for decades. They are wonderful people to work with. Ron and Anita are such great community-minded business owners. We appreciate them and encourage you to stop by and see what electronic options they have to make your life easier!

The employee with whom I dealt was extremely helpful. When I called late in the business day to find out whether they stocked an item I urgently needed, he even offered to stay a little past the store closing time if I couldnt get there by exactly 5. When I arrived at the store, the employee offered clear explanations about the items I needed.

I needed a couple things from time to time over the course of my college education. This store was a big help especially during my senior design engr course at Purdue, since the lab supply shop closes kind of early and when you need a part immediately, theyre the only other option.

I want to support local business and I really want to like this store but they just never have what I need. For instance I needed some standard spade connectors. They only had the female connectors and not the matching male connector. Turns out they dont even stock the male connector! That was one example but Ive tried to do business with these people for years and I always leave empty handed. My friends all say the same thing. The reality is that if your looking for something specific especially small electronic components your probably better off ordering your parts online from places like Digikey, Mouser, or Newark. If you really need it today drive to Frys Electronics in Indy that place is awesome.

This store has lots of electronics related supplys, of course, but not really anything ive ever needed, like the other guy who said they never have what i need, and i cant support them. radio shack had a better selection, and i wish they were still here.the reason i give 3 stars is because the staff i have dealt with has never been very knowledgeable about even basic electronics. they are just people to help you find what you need, nothing more.

ABOVE & BEYOND!!! I had a problem with a Everfocus CCTV product I bought 3 years earlier. Glen helped me troubleshoot my issue, and when we decided the product was not working properly.... they gave me a HUGE discount on a replacement. THANK YOU!!!
