Re: An excellent discussion on #firstrobotics regarding Vex and the future of the US
Stop.
Breathe.
Relax.
QUIT STATING STUFF THAT YOU DON'T KNOW TO BE TRUE.
fact: VEX product was moved out of some stores, back to Texas, due to lack of sales.
fact: People working behind the counter at RS stores don't necessarily know the resons why they were asked to move product back to Texas.
Corporate decisions get made every day. This could mean many things other than discontinuation. As part of FVC Game Design, I still field emails from FRC mentors and FVC teams on a regular basis about the program. A good friend of mine and FRC Mentor walked into an RS store last week and purchased nearly $500 worth of VEX goodies. Does any of this mean I have "insider knowledge"??? NO. I'm simply reporting what I know to be fact. I leave speculation up to those with nothing better to do with their time.
If there is anything to learn from Radio Shack, we will all learn it together from official sources. Speculation and worry are needless at this point.
