>ES Electronic Solutions on Brokaw, not too
exciting. Too well organized
>(shelves of cardboard bins with contents marked) and fully retail priced
Huh? Excess Solutions is one of the best possible
places for small
parts and oddities like rack slides. I've shopped at them frequently, and
would not call many of their prices anywhere near "fully retail."
I do hope your trip held enough hits to make it worth
running over
the pits. ;-)
A man with an apple tree finds apple prices at the store always too high,
ditto surplus stuff. I nose around too much at the source level of surplus
to be excited by prices in retail stores, and that is what ES is, a retail
store.
Funny its been just about a year since I made that trip and posted about
it, and last week I "found" most of the stuff I bought still in a couple
sacks. Goodiwise I would have to say the trip was a total bust, my time
hunting around very close to a complete waste. In a month I may be back up
in the area, and suspect I won't be going back to 90% of the places in my
last visit.
