RS in the early 80s was freaking cool. Nothing but awesome electronic stuff.

I had a Tandy TRS-80 computer with the Cassate tapes. It would've been 10-12 years old when I had it though.

Still have two of them.

RS was the best place for starting a electronics project. Since the it got into the cell phone, TVs and crap, it's gone down hill. Of course, with cell phones and such, things like two way communications has suffered. They don't carry anything really related to that genre anymore... Which is sad since I need some coax cable.. i'll order it online since they don't have what I need...

Back in the day RS wasn't so overpriced. For the last decade or two they were insane. Anyone with a clue knew not to buy anything there as the prices were the worst.

@scottalanmiller t'was my first job in the early naughties - just as they started ramping up in a big way
-
My first three jobs closed down while I was working there.... I wonder if RS would have sooner if I worked there haha
-
My first job closed down right after I quit. I have a history of quitting a week or so before everyone else keeps working but without getting paychecks.

So, you're saying you're the grim reaper of businesses

It would appear so.
