When Donald Trump said he wanted to "Make America Great Again" I thought he meant bringing back American greats like this. Boy was I fooled.

I miss Radioshack, I went there atleast once every 1-2 years to buy some electrical component that cost $1.07. I don't understand why they closed so many stores!

I used to work at one in high school. It used to be a great store.

I live in a very small rural town, and I remember when there actually used to be a Radioshack here around 1993 or so. Now I have to go about 50 miles to get to the nearest Radioshack. Radioshack is a company truly killed by the future. Once people quit buying Boomboxes, and other home audio equipment that was the end of them. They are getting really desperate now, they have brought back the Tandy name and put them on cheap keyboards and mice. They have also brought back the Realistic brand, I imagine it is also cheap Chinese crap.Bandit wrote:I used to work at one in high school. It used to be a great store.

Cell phones were mainly what they sold when I worked for them. And remote controlled cars. They had TVs and computers but those rarely sold.

I think we get a RadioShack type store here called Maplins which specialises in selling tech. Although some tech stuff like HDMI cables, headphones, audio leads etc you can buy cheaper in pound stores. So I guess their main USP is them selling computer parts, audio stuff, satellite equipment etc.

OK cool I didn't know that. Some supermarkets have like those Amazon locker type things now. Guess it works out cheaper to pick stuff up there unless you have a Prime account.
