RadioShack are gone from Canada because their prices for cheap Chinese parts were way too high and their "specifications" were meaningless and written by morons. Most of their salesmen were morons who could hardly speak Engrish.
I bought an expensive video extension cable at RadioShack. My wifey took the label to The Dollar Store and bought exactly the same thing and brand for nearly nothing. I took back the overpriced RadioShack one, then they went bankrupt. Good riddence RadioShack!
For years I joked with their salesmen about their spec's for LEDs that didn't say a word about their brightness.
The spec's mentioned length and width, and weight. Sometimes their spec's said what colour were their LEDs. Typical forward voltage? Max current? You need to guess!
My son's first cell phone was purchased at RadioShack. It was free.
My daughter gave me a cell phone with a built-in camera for my birthday last year. She got one the same. Both are free. We don't use them on the internet and we don't talk much when they charge a fortune. Evenings and weekends are free. Calls between us at anytime are free.
