I was pretty excited to learn a town as small as Lafayette had a small electronics store like this. I went a little over a month ago looking for some odd value capacitors to repair my LCD monitor. The staff was somewhat helpful- there were three employees in the store and they seemed to just be hanging out. Honestly, I felt a little like I interrupted them by walking in.
They didn't have the part I wanted in stock, which was not surprising or unexpected, it was an uncommon value. They suggested I try to order it online. I figured I'd ask if they could order it for me, and they said sure and then they took my name and number. I never heard from them again.
