    So. Many. Cables and wires.
    Ken L.

    This is probably not the kind of store the general public is going to need to shop in every day (or every month, or maybe even every year). However, that being said, it is really nice to have a good electronics shop where all of these things are available when you need them. If you don't shop at these places and keep them alive, then don't complain when Amazon takes over the world... I browsed around and found plenty of wires/cables, connectors, lights/LEDs, electronic hobby kits, cameras/video, tools, solder, PCB supplies - the whole gamut of electronics. There was even a little bit of 'surplus' scattered around the store, which is always interesting. Anyway- if you need it, and it is an electronic component, they probably have it.

    No more communication cables free hanging from the gables.  Soon to be painted.

    I was told by the old guy at Cannings ACE Hardware to check with Orvac. Which by the way experience and wisdom with that man at ACE. Recognized my project needed special supplies. So we went to Orvac and found a you man stocking shelves. I described what I needed in vague terms asking home to visualize the scenario. He recognized what I was saying and said I think we have what you are looking for and walked me to the other side of store and showed me all of the available cable ducts. He said if it was going to get painted he had some almond colored ducts that were on sale. Orvac has a lot of your electronic supplies and yes there is always inter web but service matters and they hire the right attitude to help. Stop by and give patronage to a local business that has been around for decades.

    Easy to see from the street

    I absolutely love the store. They have everything from A-to-Z that you could want when it comes to electronics. They have all your audio &video needs. They have home security surveillance business surveillance. They have all types of wall mount racks for your electronic needs they have stand up racks absolutely everything you can imagine. They also have indoor and outdoor PA systems and some of the best employees around. Everyone here is very knowledgeable and friendly and able to help you with any questions that you may have. I would definitely recommend Orvac to anyone that is in the electrical business or any other type of installation business.

    Excellent electronics store in Anaheim

    I had an excellent experience at Micro Center and want to thank Nick (technician), Josh and Rose…read more(managers), and Kevin (sales associate) for their outstanding customer service. After upgrading my Microsoft Surface Pro X to the latest version of Windows, I discovered that I didn't have enough storage space to use my computer properly. The team quickly assessed my situation and helped me upgrade the SSD, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Everyone was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to ensuring I was taken care of. They completed the upgrade in a timely manner, answered all of my questions, and made sure I was completely satisfied with the results. It's rare to find a team that goes above and beyond the way they did. Thank you, Nick, Josh, Rose, and Kevin, for the exceptional service. Highly recommended!

I have seen the giga lines for Micro Center during the graphics card boom. Horrifying, but I feel like that's what mostly contributes to the super low ratings here, and a LOT of them, mind you. But it also might be due to people malding at spending a lot of money on something that didn't work for them. I was here window shopping, we are not the same. Plenty of parking the Saturday afternoon that we went. There was staff everywhere in every section, 2-3 of them even, who were ready and there to answer questions or guide you to where you need to go. Definitely a tech nerd's paradise if anything. They have a Tech Bar there, a station to build your own computer, and I think the most unique thing that they have here is the extensive in person shopping for 3D printers and the different color filaments, if you're into that as a hobby. There's things for gamers (even a lot of set up for gaming racers - a lot of which I have never seen before then), people who like to build and DIY things, consumer electronics, and even figurines and toys, for kids who are there too, I suppose. Not bad to peruse through.

Seemingly still made the cut to order. There was about 20 ppl in front of me. So as the line shortens and im getting closer and closer, I'm just on my phone, texting friends, being excited that I'm about to place an order for this very special set. The manager/supervisor, whose name is tony, comes around to the line and makes and announcement. Specifically stating that they will NOT place multiple orders for individuals. I paid no attention, it didn't apply to me. I had just got there 15 minutes ago and hadn't placed any order yet, I thought. Then tony looks at me and proceeds to tell me that I should leave and that he will not be taking my order. I didn't listen to him. There were only 4 ppl in front of me. I was almost there. Soon as I got in front of the cashier, tony comes rushing from around that corner and tells me he's not taking my order. I kept asking why so he tells me to talk to security or call corporate. I'm confused as fuck! Then the female cashier looks up my account and tells me that I've been buying from other stores and now that I can't buy from their store. So I'm asking myself, if I bought a tv from the other location, I can't buy another tv at this location?? I started to feel like tony was discriminating against me. Becuz I came to realization that buying/purchasing from other stores was not the issue here. Becuz tony had already told me before I even got to the register that he was not going to take my order if I'm intending to place multiple orders. Which I hadn't. We went back and forth, and then begins to tell me that he now will take my order but it WILL be canceled. So after discriminating against me, he now wants to threaten me by deliberately canceling my order. So as he proceeds to place my order. I give him that necessary information that he needed. I gave him the sku number for the product that I wanted. And after I gave him that number he says to me 'funny that you know the number by heart' . It was 7 numbers. I remember my dl number. My license plate number, my ssn, and even my mama phone number by heart. I have no idea why he thought I couldn't remember 7 numbers to a product I've purchased in the past numerous times at other locations. All in all, this guy tony discriminated against me, threatened me. Intimidated me. And patronized me. He straight up profiled me. I wanna have a talk with HR next and ask what type of ppl they hire and requirements are needed to have a manager/supervisor position. It's ppl like tony is the reason why I don't come to this location. I've had better customer service at other Best Buy's location. I get 'good mornings' every time I walk in after a night of camping out. I don't get treated like shit like how tony did me. Take my word for it Don't come to this location Westminster mall and Costa Mesa is the place to go. I got the proof.
