Core Electronics Reviews 402

Core Electronics has become my first choice supplier for anything electrical. I first found them while looking at Raspberry Pi distributors and I was wowed by their extensive range compared to most of the other online retailers. For a long time I would compare all the different distributors and the auction/market sites, but now unless I need something urgently (like “if it’s not working by 5PM tomorrow heads will roll” urgent) I don’t bother.
While they may not always have the very lowest price (—though they often do) they are always competitive. More importantly: the consistency, transparency, and friendly support make any small price difference worthwhile. I’m grateful for their extensive inventory because even though I pay for free next-day shipping with, erm, a *well-known online retailer* I would rather order from Core than deal with unknown random “partner resellers” any day. Not only do they know what I ordered and where it’s at, they know what it’s for and how it’s supposed to work. In the DIY/maker arena, this cannot be understated. There are only a handful of brick and mortar stores in Australia where you can still buy a capacitor or a nozzle for a 3D printer, and unfortunately the knowledge of retail staff can be very hit-and-miss. Buying online from overseas outlets is considerably worse— many vendors are outright deceptive or predatory. There is no amount of marketing hype, sales gimmicks or “promotional gamification” that could replace the trust that comes with consistent, smart customer service. Thanks to the team at Core for stocking cool stuff, shipping the stuff promptly when we give you money, and for contributing to the maker community!

Good dispatch updates, and a follow up via email after delivery.

Easy to order, prompt processing and fast delivery. Excellent customer service.

Everything was delivered so quickly from the time of order, packed securely and was exactly what I wanted all good working order. The team even checked in with me after my order was delivered to see if everything was OK.

Great service and advice extremely quick postage

Used them a few times - very responsive which is great because I’m always a bit impatient - if I wanted it tomorrow I would order it tomorrow 😁great to see rapid dispatch

I am very happy with my purchase and the service I received from Core.
The items were great value, high quality, well packaged and arrived super fast. They are my go to suppliers for anything electronic from now on.

Great product, excellent service, speedy delivery.

Fast and secure!

Also love the stickers

Great service. All the items I've asked for, were in stock as indicated on the website, were delivered within the timeframe, and are of the expected quality. Oh, and for those who like this stuff, nice, fun stickers attached to my order :-)

Easy to order, great products & will order again.

Fast shipping, excellent communication, and genuinely impressive service. I found a Raspberry Pi combo pack at a great price and placed an order, which was dispatched almost immediately. The confirmation email was outstanding, with clear tracking details and even photos of the team who packed the order. That level of transparency and care really stood out. The experience was so good that I placed another order, confident they would arrive before Christmas. Everything arrived as promised. I’m extremely impressed with Core Electronics and will absolutely be using them again.

Great service and speedy delivery!

I look forward to tinkering.

Fast despatch and delivery.

Great attention to details and communication from Core Electronics. They are reliable, fast and provided a great product at a very competitive price (Raspberry Pi 5 8Go) compared to iver platforms. I have a go to website for all my future orders :))

Great service, prompt delivery and great packaging.

Ordered the parts and they arrived very quickly. Supplier followed up to ensure that all was okay with the order; good old fashioned service.

I was really surprised how quickly my order arrived. Everything arrived undamaged and I was really impressed the way the order was packed. If only other online businesses could offer consideration like this. An exceptional business, I will definitely be ordering products from them again.

Great website, great products and fast delivery. Great experience
