Re: Very MAD at Radio Shack

I recently stopped by a radio shack to check out the rumors of a big vex sale. Everything was indeed %50 off.

When I asked why, the two clerks didn't have a sure answer. One had no idea the other speculated that it was just to encourage people to buy it. Neither made any mention of it being dropped.

If two clerks from a store don't know that it being dropped, I would be amazed if that is anything but a rumor. What may happen is a significant change in the line, such that the old stock would be to outdated to sell.

I would like to see a smaller 'starter' kit, for one. Perhaps modularize the controller system so that you can buy a dumb controller and later buy a smart controller that plugs into the dumb unit. Anything to bring down the price.

Also, the clerks commented that their store had always done well with the line, and enjoyed the in store demo they had.
