Micro Center
MicroCenter is in Tustin, but has a wide variety of Maker gear – from a full selection of 3D printers, to Arduino, Raspberry Pi and related components. They also have an aisle dedicated to building your own arcade cabinets for retro arcade action – no quarters needed.
From their website:
When Micro Center opened in November, 1993, we brought a new era of technology retailing to Orange County and Los Angeles with our knowledgeable associates and high level of service – now with 50,000 square feet and 20,000 products. As one Tustin customer put it, “Everyone in Orange County is lucky to have a Micro Center near them. Other retailers can’t beat Micro Center’s prices, and Micro Center even offers price matching. I went in yesterday to get a budget build for my Mom and my salesperson was so helpful. He advised me on what my options were to keep me within my budget. He was very friendly and I enjoyed my buying experience because of the great customer service.”
We’re proud to offer the Tustin community an unmatched selection of computers, Apple products, software, accessories and computer parts for building your own PC. Plus, we even offer a relocated and expanded department for build your own PC enthusiasts. Our diverse associates love computers, are here to help you, and include those who’ve been assisting customers since our doors opened in 1993. No store serving Orange County and Los Angeles had previously offered as many computers and computer-related solutions, along with such a high level of customer service and employee expertise, as Micro Center.
