Just gotta see it to believe that it has everything you wouldn't find in a normal store. They are treasures.

I was a kid in a toy store. There's a little bit of everything in here, I could spend hours exploring it all. Some prices are great, some prices are so so, but none of the prices are terrible. Some staff is friendly and outgoing, some staff a bit more taciturn.

I love this store more than any other store. It's so easy to find amazing treasures! The staff is always so helpful and kind. The more time I spend in this place, the more money I spend. But it's totally okay!
The place to go for incredible stuff at unbelievable prices in Park Ridge. Here at American Science & Surplus, we are fascinated by discovery and invention and we are dedicated to having fun along the way. We offer an eclectic range of products like science kits, military surplus, hobby supplies and anything simply handy or amusing. Value is important, and whenever we can, we carry surplus at prices well below retail. We love closeouts, inventory overruns, mis-manufactures, and items whose time has not come.
