Alpha Electronics was created in February 2002. We originally began as a mobile video retailer on eBay, but as time went on we began offering a variety of products ranging from home televisions and home theater systems, to car performance and styling products. We strive to offer our customers great prices and the best customer service available online. Our goal is to become your #1 source for consumer electronics!
Established in 1960, Gateway Electronics has been the go-to place for electronics enthusiasts, model railroad & train hobbyists, amateur radio operators (hams), robot builders, airplane fans, teachers, students, kit builders, prototypers, networkers, technicians and tekkies, geeks, gadget lovers, audiophiles, installers, service techs, sound pros, old folks, young folks, and pretty much anyone else who needs electronic parts! Our store in St. Louis, MO had aisles of bins with little parts in them, shelves with old and new equipment, racks with wire and cable, and even a few geeky guys behind the counter to console you when you 'let the smoke out' of your project! We have always been a brick and mortar store where you can see and touch the parts you want, bounce ideas off fellow shoppers, and exchange friendly banter with other electronics enthusiasts. Although we are exploring options, our store is closed until further notice. We'll keep you posted.
