My 40 year old tube amp will compete with anything modern you can throw at it.
They sound especially sweet when running off of non-copper electrical outlets that lack
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters.
Aluminum wiring wrapped with asbestos insulation is the best.
I recently web ordered a security camera and ignored the additional accessories page
I've recently sent people there for things like webcams, knowing that these consumers would check out the prices
on the Internet AFTER they bought them.
The 2005 Logitech webcam could be found for about $4 cheaper online, the 2004 clearance Logitech was competitive,
and the $200 Panasonic high-end unit was about 10% less at a place I never heard of.
This is better than my local clone PC shops! And those guys have no inventory and charge more than mail order
when I pay for next-day delivery by 10:30am.
Radio Shack is starting to "get it"... but their well-deserved reputation has a lot of people just heading to WalMart
who has skimmed off Radio Shack's profitable items, and offers convenenience where "knowledge" isn't needed.
now I see that it was profit margin. A slim range of digital cameras, handheld radios
The press releases talk about the balance between their inventory of lower and high margin items. They should try being like a Kwikee Mart.
Right up the street, convenient, you-know-you-can-get-it-for-less if you drive farther, etc.
They've had a pretty consistant model for years: stick to your formula, buy the stock at $30 and sell it at $45, delve into a new business every
five years or so and lose your pants in a market where the big boys play and you don't know what you are doing.
