Really great experience with Proto-Pic. They seem to be the only supplier that sells exactly the components I’m looking for. Also very refreshing to speak to someone on the phone who seems to actually... See more

Rapid despatch and a great choice at the right prices

I ordered my Arduino Uno from these guys and followed up the order after that with more stuff, so far I have bought my XRF modules, a few Xbee shields and an Arduino Fio as well.... delivery each time has been in a nice sturdy plastic box which can be reused for component storage.

Will certainly use again :)

Fast & Effecient

Ordered some items after 3pm arrived next day before 9am... can't get any better than that...

May not be the cheapest supplier but certainly appears to be a reliable one... which can make all the difference in these uncertain times.

Got my future business.

Customer support helpful and responsive.

simply superb

This shop is like a trasure trove of goodies! If you ever have any problems they always answer very quickly and you can ask them to source goods if its not listed in their shop.

I love this shop I regularly find myself clicking around it.

Good prices, Excellent service

I have recently bought several electronic items from Proto Pic in support of my arduino projects. I have found the prices to be very competitive and the delivery very prompt. Any queries I had were answered well and in good time.

Best service and normally lowest prices

I now buy all my prototype electronics from this company, in the past I have used several companies that come back on top of google search. However I find that proto pic is usually the best on prices. Delivery is fast and everything is shipped in plastic boxes that are handy for using in projects or storing components (a great touch).

When I ordered a board that arrived with the wrong connectors, they gave me a personal call and shipped out replacement parts at there own expense. Very helpful and happy to help over the phone.

Unless something drastically changes in service if they have the item in stock I will order from them.

One of the best online stores!

I made my first order with proto-pic a few weeks ago and since then it is where I now buy all of my electronics bits from.

The delivery is always super fast, the items are packaged fantastically and their customer service is brilliant.

I have purchased from literally hundreds of online stores but I have to say in my honest opinion, this ranks very very highly as one of the best if not, the best online experience I have had.

Thank you proto-pic

Very good as per usual

With the last order I had there was an issue with PayPal as I was out of the country when I placed my order. Proto-PIC called me up immediately on my mobile to let me know what was going on. Very nice of them to give me a phone call to let me know!

Only a short delay and obviously not their fault (PayPal security check!) and the goods were delivered on time in great condition as they usually are - when I am in the UK I never have a problem and the service is typically excellent over the website, email or phone.Thanks!
