AC Wholesale Electrical

There one of the best wholesalers around. I've worked with him 20 years and sometimes they can't get stuff not their fault these other comments people are making, wrong! they're great people and want to help and do help so ignore those few idiots that don't know what they're talking about thank you .

Done with using them as my electrical supplier. Called and checked if they had what my electrician needed and they said yes, sent one of my guys over to pick it up, was way more than quoted on the phone and not even what the electrician wanted. Sent my guy back three hours later to return and they wanted to charge a 25% restocking fee.

I don't why this place has so many lousy reviews, they're actually one of my favorite electric supply shops in town - and they're open saturdays!

HORRIBLE. I was at this place today and witnessed one of the most disrespectful exchanges ever in customer service. And looking at the historical comments above I think all are well-deserved and properly warranted. The sarcastic, know-it-all counter boy asked a customer who was upset he had been sold the wrong light for his closet, ""Are you growing weed with these lights? That's what most customers are using them for."" Like, ""Da fuq, Snot?!"" You sold him the wrong crap and tried to diss the man for calling you on it. The customer showed restraint telling him how he screwed up. No one and I mean not one rep is inviting or customer oriented. This is a culture. The owner was there. When I first came in, no greeting or stand by please. The female corpse that lazily sweeps the floor by the heels of her dragging feet 'zombies' about the place avoiding work and appears to be very thirsty all the time. I guess the old grey mare ain't what she's used to be so turn her to glue soon since she just sticks around anyway. The closet and fetch rat, Johnnie is the closest thing to a professional. However, I could not wait to leave. Had it not been for my important need of a product they had in stock I would have left the sh*t on the counter, deuced them up and yelled, ""Peace, Bee-otchez!"" on my exit.

I'll never return! I'll find a more respectful alternative in LA.

I had a very bad experience at AC Wholesale Electric. Service is unfriendly if not rude. Prices quoted were different depending on who you are talking to. The first person quoted $40 for a circuit breaker, then a second sales person charged me $56, I canceled this due to the way I was treated and walked out . I went to Best LA Electical on nearby Pico, they did not have the model that I needed, they the great guys there called three other stores trying to help me get what I wanted, non had it. I had to go back to AC Wholesale insisted that I would only by a quoted by the first person, $40, when I got in my car, still with a bitter taste having to face these rude people and noticed that he actually charged me $45. I would never give these people my money again. Their attitude actually spoiled my day- avoid if at all possible Best LA Electrical on pico is not only nicer, it is cleaner, more organized and the price is about 40% cheaper.

Terrible service. Bored salespeople. Uninformed. They do not care. I had a specific cover in mind to cover a small hole in the floor made by a coaxial cable. The bored guy said: just fill it in with silicone.

Small place conveniently close by my work thought I try them out only needed electrical wire order 3 color in purple, gray, white, strained 14 ga wire in 100ft . There comment was we usually sell it by the rolls of 500 ft but will cut to order no problem. They had it ready the next morning , wat a surprise got a roll of spaghetti ravel all tape together not separate in a individual pieces . They say Home Depot does it the same way, not sure if I should have been more specific to ask them to roll it out nicely

I went in on a Saturday to buy a GFR circuit breaker that was not available at other retailers. I special ordered the item through AC and was told that it would be $65 and it would come Tuesday or Wednesday. I looked online at Amazon and saw that the breaker I needed was $50 so I ordered it through Amazon.

To be fair to AC, I went back and offered to pay the shipping charges. They made me pay 25% of $96 which was their new retail price for the breaker. I paid $22.50 for a restocking fee and left without a breaker. They did not offer me a receipt the first time or second time.

I went back to return two light fixtures that we decided they were not what we needed.
I bought them reluctantly because I don't know anything about electrical supplies - however - I went ahead and got them because sales person encouraged me to get them with the assurance that if they didn't work out - that I could bring them back.
Unfortunately - it was all talk and a lot of hassle to bring the fixtures back.
Although I brought them back in their original box with all the original packaging and not used - the sales guy charged me a re-stocking fee and told me that he never assured me that I would get a full refund.
Very disappointing experience..

This place is awful. It's dumpy and disorganized. The staff is rude and doesn't speak English. They didn't have what I needed and they acted like it was my fault for wanting something they didn't have. They didn't even try to help me find an alternative solution.
