"I have been shopping at Altronics for as long as I can remember both for my business and personally, in Perth when I was growing up, and when they opened many years ago here in Brisbane"
"Ordered components today, but despite the website indicating stock available for collection in QLD, got a call to say some was not, but if I were willing to wait two weeks and pay for freight, I could pick it up then"
"Came here to get some little N20 motors for my line following robot"
"Saved about $500 on a dishwasher repair yesterday, not just due to Altronics in Virginia having a $1"
"Really pleased with this business, I was told about them from a friend and decided to give them a try The range was excellent, the prices reasonable, but what really impressed me was the knowledge and service from the staff"
I have been shopping at Altronics for as long as I can remember both for my business and personally, in Perth when I was growing up, and when they opened many years ago here in Brisbane. One of the true electronics stores still left in this country that still sells right down to component level. I have always found the staff in this store to be courteous and knowledgeable, each with their own area of expertise. The "older woman" referred to rudely by a pseudonym poster below, I can only assume to be the friendly, very experience electronics salesperson who has served me at another electronics store for many years prior and always has her finger on the pulse when it comes to finding things I have needed, Not to mention she is always good for a laugh and makes it her business to get to know and remember her customers !! Keep doing what you do guys!!
Ordered components today, but despite the website indicating stock available for collection in QLD, got a call to say some was not, but if I were willing to wait two weeks and pay for freight, I could pick it up then. Well, if I wanted that, I could order it from Perth Head Office myself for delivery direct to me. I only wanted to collect in Brisbane because I was travelling there in two days' time from further north, so I could get the components quicker. To have stocking errors on their website, then suggest that I should pay extra, and also travel to Brisbane again to collect is not good customer service. I suggest go elsewhere if you want people to live up to their published business standard.
Came here to get some little N20 motors for my line following robot. They performed well, however they weren't listed as '12V' on the website, and there was no datasheet for it. The stall current was listed as 1.6A, however, I was running it with a 2S LiPo as the input voltage was '3 - 12V'. It blew up my motor driver's capacitor (TB6612FNG sparkfun), but luckily I had a spare. It would be good next time if more information could be given on your products. I bought a 3S later that day and my spare motor driver hasn't exploded after testing 5 or 6 times. The employees were very nice, helpful, and quick to find what we needed.
Saved about $500 on a dishwasher repair yesterday, not just due to Altronics in Virginia having a $1.75 part in stock, but also massive thanks to the extremely helpful staff there. They happily guided me to the specific part from the catalogue, located in an obscure part of the store for tiny delicate components, showing excellent product & store sales knowledge. Every visit I've made since their opening in December 2014 has been an enjoyable battle against temptation to get more amazing stuff.
Really pleased with this business, I was told about them from a friend and decided to give them a try The range was excellent, the prices reasonable, but what really impressed me was the knowledge and service from the staff. Pleasing to come across a business where product knowledge is important, Well done to whoever is responsible for staff training Telling all my friends Thanks for the excellent service
Decent stock and prices but a understaffed and the people in store generally inattentive and not present. Have witnessed multiple times people throwing their items on the ground and walking out due to no one on the desk for 15 minutes. Have usually had to google questions about products in the aisle as no one around to help and when they are, not very knowledgable. Have had much better luck at jaycar
I love this place - the staff are great, the store is clean, they are close by. The staff know their stuff and are able to help me in a flash. I have sent through fax orders and they are ready waiting for me. Plenty of parking. Love the Arduino and Raspberry Pi books. Well done guys see you next visit.
Been there a few times the first time a young man helped me and it was a good experience the last 2 times ive had the same older man who seems to have little man sydrome as everything is to hard and to much for him especialy being nice to
Needed replacement UPS batteries, they had what I wanted and at a fair price. Attentive friendly staff, so couldn't ask for more. Also keep going back for fair price good service and range for electronic repairs.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Love the range and always seem to buy more than I came in to do. I do struggle at times to find things without asking for help but it must be hard to organise so many small items.
An extremely well stocked electronics store with very friendly helpful staff. Can't rate them highly enough as this survey only provides for a maximum of 5 stars. Will be returning for sure.
After having been out of electronics for the better part of 25 years, when deciding to get back into it all, I found the team at Altronics to be incredibly knowledgeable and approachable.
This store is like heaven. Except everything has a price tag and my wife reminds me we have bills to pay. Jokes aside, the team are friendly and knowledgable. The shop is always well kept.
Legendary service. Very knowledgeable not just about individual products but also the various tools and such that make using the products easier. Very easy to be a loyal customer.
Tony is very savvy knowing his products, is always helpful and a great asset to the company. Surprisingly, Altronics have quite a few items Jaycar don't supply or source. …
Excellent range. Very helpful staff who know their stuff. A rare find these days. Easy parking out the front. Located between Autobarn and McDonalds on Sandgate Rd.
Awesome customer care and very friendly staff and service. Awesome range of products. Make this your first stop when purchasing anything electronic and electrical.
Very helpful staff and great range although there were a couple of catalogue items they didn't have. Would be great if they had more stores in Brisbane.
Staff knowledgeable and willing to help. Friendly and effective service was easy to take. My experience was quite pleasant, quick and informative.
I love this shop. Staff are great to talk to, new stock and well stocked. Thankful to have this nearby for all my last minute project needs.
Been many times, staff are really helpful, and tolerant; I ask alot of questions and their always happy to answer them, great range as well.
Always friendly knowledgable help from all team members. Well stocked, and stock availability can also be checked via online store.
Beware this evil den of electronics One visit here may destroy house economics It's easy to get lost in the maze of ideas
Awsome service provided by the staff here. They have such a wide variety of spare parts and products. Highly recommend.
Good range of slightly obscure products, helpful knowledgeable staff and easy to access location. Too many good toys!
