About this business

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.

Just go. You will find stuff you never knew you needed, scientific and otherwise. Great place for me to find items for classroom and for my own art projects.

Waaaaayyy back around the turn of the 19-20 century my philosophy professor introduced me to SCIPLUS. I ordered religiously every year arouns xmas for stocking stuffers. I still have some soviet buttons adorning my favorite coat. Thank you for keeping these oddities out of landfills and expanding material collections of the inquisitive.

I never heard of this place before. We went to eat at Elly's and my friend said hey have you ever been to that store? We went in and we were immediately transformed into a crazy science experiment! All kinds of cool and weird novelties, science stuff, posters etc. You could spend hours in here! Great place to go!
