Jan Electronic Supplies Inc - New London, Connecticut

This store is one of the last of it's kind. They had just about everything I was looking for for a small electronics project. If you're looking for something you would have found at RadioShack back in the day, I'd definitely check here.

I've not been to the store in a while but I absolutely love it... especially for small electronic projects... it is indeed the last of it's kind.. which is so sad because here you can get a hands-on experience for sure.. rather than ordering online and hoping to get the right components

I have had two previous experiences shopping at Jan, both of them were terrible. I decided to try them out again today, to give them the benefit of the doubt. I wish that I had stayed at home.

The selection of components is not only terrible, but also antiquated. From resistors to fuses to potentiometers, everything that I have purchased from them was corroded from age and vastly overpriced.

Worst of all is the customer service. I have never been treated with anything but disdain when entering the store. The staff acts as if locating components and finding prices are great chores that I am forcing them to undertake. Two out of my three trips the Jan have resulted in the incorrect item being supplied, and each time the items I received were of subpar quality.

I am an electronic hobbyist, and most of my projects are small and for personal use. Maybe the staff at Jan chooses to treat larger and more commercial clients with greater care, I am not sure. I am sure that I have felt unwelcome every time I went to Jan, and that my business was unappreciated. I will never be returning.

Found what I needed very quickly but didn't have cash just debit card.. (($20.00 min)) but luckily I did need a new flashlight which put me over the minimum.. Desk salesman was helpful... very VERY HELPFUL!!! overly helpful but nice and I guess just trying to do his job so I was ok with it. Always been a good place to do business with and I've been going there for over 20yrs.

Possibly the best service I've ever received from any business. I showed up 5 minutes before closing in need of resistors and diodes. I was shocked by the amount of product they had and the variety of their store. I was immediately helped, They had the resistors in the show room and they looked the diodes up and went into the back room and got them for me. I asked if I could stay and look around and they had no problem with it. 10/10 from me.

We had been previously, and the man who waited on us was very knowledgeable and helpful. We returned today and the man working was rude and made us feel we were imposing on his work day. If you are so busy then do not open to the public for business. You lost 2 good customers today and i Will tell everyone I see not to bother going there. We trying to make a purchase and he was just a total bother. We asked just some basic questions about the items we were purchasing and he would not help us.

Those interested in the repair or upkeep of electronics Old and New, this is the shop for you. Everything from switches, wires, resisters, and the like can be found here. Save yourself the shipping and handling fee, check here first.

Some of the best customer service you're ever going to get. Worked with Mark very last second for a project with my job, he was able to not only get me everything I need but saved me money by helping me figure out I didn't need the more expensive cables I thought I did!
