RADIO SHACK CLOSING DOORS
CHECK PAGE 2
Forecast store closings: 450 to 550
Earlier this month, RadioShack's long-term prospects as a viable company took another hit when its partnership with Target ended after neither side could come up with a mutually beneficial deal. The company had operated mobile kiosks at 1,500 Target locations across the country. Shares of the consumer electronics company are down by roughly 68% over the past year. The company recorded an operating loss of nearly $60 million in the third quarter of 2012. Same-store sales in the quarter dropped by 1.6% year-over-year. Revenue in the quarter fell by 3.8% year-over-year. Between 2010 and 2011, the company closed 2.2% of its existing locations - more than 120 locations in all.
That is going to hurt on the East coast where we don't have Fryes. Sometimes you just need a component today, and Radio Shack is the only game in town for things like project boxes, LED's, Resisters, etc....

Only may be good,is might be able to get the parts a little sooner,but with digikey i always get my parts in 3-4 days ,no tax or gas money.postage is about $4
We have had a very successful year; both financially and personally. I've achieved many goals... Heck, because all of you I've passed my goals! I didn't expect to ship so many kits and ez-b's in 2012. We were having a 2013 planning meeting one day... And during the meeting I kept seeing the revenue numbers from 2012 and could barely believe how awesome they were. Suddenly it occurred to me! We need to drop our prices. We need to give back to the community. We need to help even more people build their dream robots!
So, rather than buying Lamborghini's... We are buying the world more EZ-Robots
As for the delay in shipping - it is due to a few large orders that has used up our inventory
Tell you all something funny. Even though so much has happened over the year, nothing has changed in the forefront. We still make awesome features. We still listen to the community. We still are us! And that's awesome. The interesting challenge I face is maintaining that service as more responsibilities are loaded on us. But, it's what makes us unique
The other day I needed an EZ-B for a project. I also needed some servos. So you know what I did? Logged onto ez-robot.com and ordered them. Wierd hey? I now have to order my own parts from my own company... Got a chuckle out of that!
THAT is wierd DJ you have to ordered boards,dont you work for them and design the software you should get it for free if its a company software design
In my company i can get almost anything for free,plus have worlds may be biggest stock of parts for me to keep.
only parts i buy are some sensors and boards for my robots.unless it a sensor needed for a test.
board is getting very good so far,hope to see many more features ,like your chat program you said you are working on.
Nice not to need to wait on US customs to clear it too.
