i complete agree, mr.alcheng.
I agree with you Mr.kenchan, but that was the past.

nowadays radioshack is being well known of filled with sales-person selling product at high price but they don't have no idea on what they are selling.....

but even that, i can buy most of the bits online on amazon lol haha

and to make it worse, consumers nowadays like to go to the physical store to look at the product, then order it online for a cheaper price.

thus physical store is acting like a huge show room...
