Re-Circuit Electronics

What Re-Circuit Electronics does

Re-Circuit Electronics is a privately held, hybrid retail and services company founded in 2012 and headquartered at 855 South Holland Sylvania Road, Toledo, Ohio. The business operates two channels: a Shopify-hosted e-commerce storefront shipping across the United States, U.S. territories, and APO/FPO/DPO addresses, and a single physical retail location serving as showroom, repair intake counter, and order pickup point. The company sells tested pre-owned consumer electronics—including MacBook Pro, Dell Latitude, and Lenovo Legion laptops, mobile devices, gaming consoles, audio equipment, and accessories—at unit prices ranging from $17.99 to $650, with all sales final and items warranted functional at time of shipment.

Beyond hardware resale, Re-Circuit operates a professional repair and diagnostic intake division covering consumer electronics and automotive electronic control modules (e.g., 2001–2005 GM Duramax fuel injection modules, 2004–2005 GMC Sierra glow plug controllers, 2005–2007 Ford Super Duty trailer brake controllers), priced at $77.50–$200 per device on a mail-in basis. The third revenue stream is regulated assistive technology services delivered as an Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) waiver provider compliant with OAC 5123-9-12, encompassing Assistive Technology, Remote Support Enablement, and Environmental Adaptations for individuals with developmental disabilities, complemented by a 3D-printed accessibility devices line.

The company serves four identifiable segments—individual consumers (primary), small-to-medium businesses, DODD waiver recipients, and gaming enthusiasts—via direct-to-consumer digital channels (Facebook, Instagram, Google Business Profile, email newsletter) and the Shopify storefront. The firm is Women-Owned Business Certified and positions itself around electronics lifecycle extension as a sustainability thesis. The operating model is intentionally lean: no parent company, no disclosed institutional funding, no disclosed headcount, and no public revenue figures.
