Has anyone ordered from this company?

Audio and Video, Computer Parts, Batteries, Cable and Wiring at MCM Electronics

Good, bad, ok?

Seems shipping will come out to a minimum of $8.95 with either USPS or UPS.

 

[Rocketman]

YES, outstanding company.
Been in business for years.
Used to be the only place you could buy proprietary RCA television parts

Reputable place.
shop and make the shipping worth while.
They have a good assortment of speakers also.

Whoa, that was fast Rocketman, seems you live up to your name.

Bookmarked the site and will take a leisurely look at the site later and see what else I can add to my $4 basket of 1/3ohm and 1/4 ohm resistors and stuff. Thanks!

and another place I shop is Marlin P. Jones and Associates (His wife is the Associates I think )

MPJAdotcom

MCM has a 10% off for larger orders I think, maybe something for first timers, e-mail them.

mcm is a huge company Very good & Trustful they have been around for many years.
they specialize in a few fields & also do wholesale.

I did take a look at
MPJA.com earlier due to the soldering station for an insane price of $15.
Seemed like an interesting Florida company, may be worth the additional step of contacting them beforehand as they suggest to ask for shipping other than UPS.

Thanks for the response to Kuya Dave too re another vote for mcm.

No problem when I worked at a TV repair shop & Computer repair.

We use to order from them sometimes for specifics.
I forget if there the 1's with the huge catalogs or not it's been a while.

Oh yeah, MCM had a huge catalog. I also worked for an electronics repair shop back before everything moved online, and MCM was one of our sources for certain parts. They were already well established back then, so you can definitely trust them now. According to Wikipedia, they've been in business since 1976.

 

[Kuya Dave]

oh so they were the ones with the 2 catalogs a yr. about 5" thick if I recall lol
There service was great.

But loved finding interesting stuff in the catalog. Helped me mod a few things.
