Everyone here is so helpful and answered every question I had. if someone didnt know the answer they referred me to someone who did. so proud of my electric set up, with a huge thank you to Luis and Lupe! doesnt make sense to go anywhere else if youre in Tucson. simply the best.

Elliotts Electronics ROCKS! Every time I go there, they have exactly what I need & know precisely where it is. I hurt my leg & cant walk well. I called them & they brought my purchases out to my truck. You cant beat that kind of service!! 🌞

A hidden gem in Tucson for surplus aircraft parts, instruments, and other miscellany. While most of the stuff there is aircraft related they do have a decent selection of surplus computers, electronics, and other industrial equipment. Great service, fair prices, and theres always something new showing up!

Recently the running capacitor on my central air conditioner failed shutting it down. Having your ac down when its 113 degrees is definitely not a good thing and time can be of the essence. So I decided to replace it myself, saving hundreds of dollars in the process. I called around to find a replacement and was surprised that the vast majority of places that had the part wouldnt even sell it to me because I was not a contractor. This was quite surprising, definitely a captive market. Eliiots had it, available, and at a great price. Bottom line, the ac was repaired and I saved hundreds of dollars. Thanks to Elliotts. If you need electronic parts this is the place to go, barr none!!

It was my first time here and I must say the customer service was atrocious. Prices were ok but I rather pay Amazon $10 more to not be ignored and wait when I’m the only customer there.

I think they have a fantastic selection of electronic parts, tools and consumables that would make David Jones blush. Some other review by a Sean Parsons seems to misunderstand the second building-- it is their surplus location. They arent asking you to go fetch it for them, its an entirely separate gig that focuses on separate products (all of which are at a great price). I will be shopping here for as long as I am in Tucson, you can count on that!

I really didnt know that I needed this store in my life.I recently needed a capacitor for a playstation 1 repair, and if I ordered this tiny capacitor online from mouser it would have cost me only $1.50 however the shipping was $9.95. I had no idea there was a store like this in Tucson but I decided to try and find one and low and behold there was Elliots Electronics. When I walked in they had exactly the small SMD capacitor that I was needing. They have almost anything that you can imagine. Literally a whole wall of just switches and LEDs. Resistors? Theres a wall covered in them.Great store, and not only will I go back again, Ive already gone back and purchased more. Will I pay slightly more than amazon? Probably, but its worth it for being able to walk in and pick it up same day, ask the people there for help, and support local businesses at the same time.Make sure you check out Elliots Surplus next door as well.

Been patronizing this place for 22 years. Today was my last time. Went in for some small project items, nothing expensive or special, all were on their website as In Stock. Disappointed with the quality of several items and I walked the whole store shopping and gathering my listed items. Finally asked for an item on their website homepage, and I was told I had to go Next Door and buy it there. Owner seemed put out when I said I dont want to go next door to buy it, I came here, and its on your website. No compromise or understanding, just go next door if you want it. Well Sir, I left everything at the counter and left. I can buy the items online for a bit less. I have always tried to support a local business. Im a customer not a stock boy, not my job to run next door to find and buy an item they sell. This shell game about splitting their business into two stores feels shady. Seems they would rather I bought items elsewhere as well as they made no effort to save the sale. Sad to say, I expect they will be following the other electronics store (Initials FE). I dont buy a lot and they probably wont feel it, but they have lost a long time customer.

The staff are knowledge, friendly, and willing to answer basic/beginner questions to help you complete your electronics project. Great selection of hobbyist parts & components, and frequently cheaper than Amazon (especially with the ability to buy small quantities). Everything I need for my projects I can find here---small gauge wire, connectors, breadboards, etc. I havent found an equivalent selection elsewhere in Tucson.

Review №28

Overwhelming inventory. Thats not necessarily a bad thing though, they have a huge selection of items for surely your need. Whether its new electrical components, security and pc surplus, or even that hard to find spare wing to your Cessna 172. Be prepared and allow yourself extra time to browse their entire floor for what you need or even the next diy project.

Review №46

Because all the other locations that used to sell electronic parts have closed, this place is the only one in Tucson now. Big selection, but some parts and equipment are old, and may have been previously used. Some staff are not particularly friendly or helpful. Opening soon, a surplus department, should be interesting !

Elliott Electronic Supply stocks a variety of electronic parts for electronics enthusiasts and amateur radio operators. They have resistors, capacitors, inductors, connectors, bulk coaxial cable, project boxes, relays, soldering supplies, tools, and test equipment. I very rarely have to order anything because it is usually in stock. The sales staff is knowledgeable and helpful. They know the products that they sell.

Review №58

My favorite store for anything electronic, Radio Shack wasnt even close to the same league compared to these guys. If you can think of an electrical part, these guys have it and in stock 99% of the time. I actually have spent 2hrs in this store looking at stuff and still missed things. If thats not bad enough they have a surplus store right next door that has everything you never needed but wanted. I can spend 2 hrs in that one as well. Needless to say my girlfriend hates this place, so I dont go often but when I do, count me out for half a a day. Need a discount? Tell them Tom sent you.

My experience was Great. They were helpful and saved me significant dollars.

I have been going to Elliot Electronics since 1992 and have always been treated with courtesy and a smile. When it comes to parts, if they dont carry it (which is rare) they wont hesitate to recommend a local supplier or research and order it for you if at all possible. An awesome bunch of people

Review №72

As one of the few electronic supply stores in the area this location is very important for those tinkering with electronics. It caters to enthusiasts as well as professionals with a very wide selection of all types of electronics. Just as a clarification, while this store does sell computer equipment it is much more designed for those looking at doing things with base components such as cabling and various electronic tools. A good place to check for things electronic because they will most likely have something that will work for you.

Very rude staff. Even Mcdonalds shows more courtesy. I expected thatfamily owned buisnesses would care more. One recent bad experience. They had a raspberry pi for 60 bucks and online its for 35 and at SWS computers in town for 45 bucks. I asked about the price difcerence and the staff told me its like walmart and tiffany,s. Same item different price and thats why its called shopping. Well I guess I will just take my business to walmart then. I am new to town and have already made the mistake of spending over $500 here..
