Veteran bargain DX'er Saul Broudy turned me on to
this internal Radio Shack document showing 1784
stores slated to close soon. If one of these
stores is near you, it might pay to check it
out. I agree that some stock is likely to be
sold off wholesale to liquidators, but there'll
still be some pretty deep retail discounts in
stores slated for closing. Apparently the store
inside the Plymouth Meeting Mall has already closed.

I was in my local RadioShack yesterday expecting to find the whole
place on sale. Although it was looking rather empty despite nothing
being on sale,the staff there were of the firm opinion that they
weren't going anywhere.
I've seen this before. During the last 2 RS down sizings product was
moved either to other stores or to wholesalers for a better price than
they think it will fetch in the store - and then the store closes.
I wouldn't be holding my breath I went to the sale near me in the
Short Hills Mall. They had nothing but cellphones and satellite TV. Al
of their hobby Maker stuff was gone but they labels on the pegs it was
on did not show sale prices.However, if you were in need of a cordless
phone or a microphone cable you were in luck.
