  • We've been in business since 1977, and are known for good advice, good prices and great phone equipment.
  • Strange but true: We've sold Panasonic phones to Panasonic, Lucent wire to Lucent, and we sent a phone system that was made in Japan, to a customer in Japan.
  • Our customers range from homeowners and entrepreneurs to major corporations, government agencies and the military.
  • This site is conceived to be a "lite" version of our famous PhoneGeeks.com website, to provide basic telecom hardware to people with no technical knowledge.
  • We ship worldwide.
  • No sales tax is collected unless you are in Connecticut.
  • We accept major credit cards with secure online ordering, or you can call us toll-free at 1.888.225.3999.
  • We accept purchase orders from most government agencies and not-for-profit educational institutions. The minimum amount for a purchase order is $100. Terms are net 30 days.
  • We're open from 9am until 6pm, Eastern Time, Monday though Thursday. We close at 5 on Friday.

    Our principles, developed during 30-plus years in business:
    1. We're very careful about what we sell. We won't sell junk.
    2. We test new products before we try to sell them to others.
    3. We spend our money carefully and want our customers to do the same thing. We'll tell you if you're buying something you don't need, or skipping something important.
    4. We want happy customers. We're not perfect, but we try to do the right thing.
