Fall Sale Days are here

Bet that multimeter still works too.

There are still a few locations left in the world, and I believe at this point they’re all privately owned “Radio Shack Authorized Reseller” locations. I know for a fact there’s one in Petersburg, West Virginia.

The rights to the Radio Shack name are owned by Unicomer Group now, and they’re the ones running the lurching husk that comprises the web site above. Their product selection seems to consist entirely of white-box Chinese radios, headphones, Bluetooth speakers, wireless charging pucks, and other sundry cheap electronics of that ilk, but all bearing the Radio Shack brand name. But they also still sell batteries, apparently.

I had one of the those Realistic radios (in yellow) 20 years after this was printed.

Oh man, I grew up with those intercoms on the top right.

That’s what qualified as a baby monitor. It had a lock button so it could constantly transmit.

So weird to see them again.

My dad has one that looks similar to that, and yup it still works

I don’t remember doing much at radio shack. I think I bought a variable resistor for a radio tuner, but that’s it

Brings back many fond memories. Sure miss the original Radio Shack. That’s the exact flyer we got when I was a kid. Grew up in CT

Fun fact: Tandy computers were in fact named because of Tandy leather.

At least Mouser and Digikey still exist.

Fox Run Mall location was closest to my house.

Was a bit of a haul, but reachable by bicycle for 70s kid
