Got to agree with the review below, not the cheapest, nice showroom to give you some ideas on what to buy.

In days gone by, Maplins was predominantly an electronics part supplier selling all sorts of diodes…read moreand transistors and capacitors. Although still selling parts and equipment such as soldering irons and all manner of switches and sockets, they have branched out into toys, games, and audio/video equipment as well as computer upgrades. If you are looking for a cable to connect your new TV to your gaming system, then maplin's probably have it in stock cheaper than your local electronic superstore. Although the wide range of products offered has 'watered down' the maplin store slightly, it is still a treasure-trove for out-of-the-ordinary electronic items and weird and wonderful bits you won't find anywhere else.

I don't often write bad reviews but here goes…read more Working as an assistant to a CEO turning over millions, I was given the task of finding a UK to India adapter as my boss is leaving for India tomorrow. Phoned a number of stores in Leeds as it was easier for me to commute to, with no success. Decided to try Maplins in Bradford after Maplins in Leeds suggested the idea. After waiting on the phone for 13 minutes to speak to someone in store found they had one, yay! So I reserved it. Arrived in Bradford, couldn't find the store so phoned them - another 7 minute wait. When I entered the store the item I had reserved earlier was produced only to find it was an India to UK adapter! I explained that wasn't what I asked for and that I'd emphasised on the phone it needed to be the other way round ie UK to India adapter. What a waste of a journey, waste of time queuing on the phone and left without even an apology. Sorry but you really need to brush up on all sorts here Maplins.
