The electronics store was clearly torn down a while ago and the little computer store wasnt open despite both claims. Dont waste your time. Podunk operation clearly. Its 2021. No excuse for information this out of date.
Imagine a store selling electronic components in this day and age! Just like when I was a kid 50+ years ago. Its amazing in our world of throw away and buy new. This place is the best! Please stay in business! We electronic nerds need you.
WARNING! They are only doing by appointment counter sales at this time, you have to call and schedule it.
As others have said, kind of like taking a trip back into the 70s and early 80s when places like Radio Shack, Heathkit, etc, were still around. I have spoken to both Tom and Mike, and felt like I received good service. Debco is located on the east side of Cincinnati, so its a bit of a haul for someone like me from Oxford. I make sure to buy enough of something to make the trip worthwhile. The Kenwood Mall, and Cheescake Factory are nearby if you should want another reason for the trip! :0)
I am not sure who Mike is, but he definitely was not who I spoke with either of the times that I was there. I really had high hopes, after other reviews. The person had no idea what I was talking about. He online looking up specs! And when we found which item that I was looking for, he could not find it in the shop. After some searching, he told me that they were out of stock. No problem. But when I asked about when it would be in, he had no idea again. Maybe never.
Debco Electronics is the place to go for electronic replacement components. If, you are a run-of-the-mill Appliance Operator, drive on by, go to the Big-Box store and stimulate the economy by buying a new appliance. Those with technical knowledge and skill can find the parts needed to maintain legacy equipment or start new projects. Debco is an asset to the electronics community.
Great local mom and pop electronics store. Went in to get diodes and got what I needed in less than 2 minutes. Mikes a good guy. Very helpful!
Second time in less than 1 month I have been to Debco. They had what I needed or could get it. Great value! Radio shack is not a good local store with detailed info. If youre scared to remove a screw or solder a wire. Go to radio shack. If youre not, then go to Debco Electronics!
MUCH better selection and prices than Radio Shack. Not the prettiest store, but the guy behind the counter wont give you a blank stare if you ask him for a 22uF 50V capacitor (and he wont try to sell you a cell phone either!).
This ol guy Tom, had it all !Old school, all the right components in any quantity. Plus, he is a fountsin of knowledge
It was a great place but now appears to have gone out of business locally. Try finding them as a web vendor.
Had exactly what I was looking for at a great price
Excellent prices . way better than radio shack and more stuff. local store and dealer
Love this place ! Wide selection ! Great Prices ! Friendly people ! Worth the trip to just go in, look around, and find things you didnt think you could find !
Great selection for a small space
Pricy, but they probably have what you need
They had all I was looking for... plus some stuff i didnt know I needed
Good costumer service
Have what you need... But what is with the hours of operation?
Great place
