    I was just told about a store called Altex in Richardson and Fort Worth that appear to be a lot like Microcenter that I might have to check out...website shows to sell a lot of stuff that I haven't seen in stores since Radio Shack went under.

    This. Frys used to be the ultimate place to get tech items, then Newegg and microcenter came along. Here recently, they've had empty shelves and SHIT customer service. You would go into Frys and couldn't find anyone to help, you go into Microcenter and get help immediately.

    might go in there and snag some lp's if they start a fire sale.
    Out of sheer boredom I visited the Arlington and Irving stores and was astounded the doors were open..empty shelves, no employees other than the register at the front. Quite literally like an abandoned warehouse with light on.

    I think we can actually blame Trump for this one. Most of the stuff they sold was made in China, once tariffs started on those imports they couldn't compete. For a while they were trying to do a consignment model but why would a manufacturer pay to deliver a product to a shelf when they can just let Amazon handle everything post production?
