[Coco] Radio Shack dealers - CoCoFEST! Visit?

[rietveld rietveld]

It was sad when all of our RS stores turned into 'the source '. I remember back in the 80s when I was riding my bike to the local radio shack in Welland , in the old towers plaza, to buy a fd502.    I worked part time after school to save up for it. I was so proud of that purchase, and amazed I was able to get it home while riding my bike.

I had dream, no a nightmare… I dreamt I went to a RadioShack store. When I arrived, the door was partially open. I went in and there was no one there. All the displays were empty, the shelves were bare. There was a scattering of old papers and trash on the floor. Except for the sign outside the store and painted on the window there was not even anything that said RadioShack. Most of the furniture was missing, and what was still there was broken. Then I woke up and remembered that RadioShack was gone and there are not any franchise stores anywhere near me. I was very sad.
