RADIOSHACK CLOSING ITS DOORS AFTER 96 YEARS THIS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND
WITH FINAL MEMORIAL DAY CLEARANCE SALES, RADIOSHACK MARKS ITS SHIFT TO ONLINE WITH AN ICONIC MEMORABILIA AUCTION
FORT WORTH, Texas, May 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- From humble beginnings in Boston in 1921, over the past 96 years RadioShack established itself as a globally recognized leader and the go to retailer for consumer electronics. RadioShack has always been known as the place for answers to the American public's technology and electronics questions. "You've got questions, we've got answers."
At its peak, RadioShack operated over 7,300 stores with retail sales and operating revenue in the billions of dollars and its locations were famously within 3 miles of more than 95% of households across America. This Memorial Day Weekend, we will be closing over 1,000 stores, leaving less than 70 corporate and 500 RadioShack dealer stores around the country. With 96 years of history, go say goodbye to the RadioShack in your neighborhood. This weekend you still have an opportunity to come visit your nearby store for your electronic needs at great liquidation sale prices, before we close the doors for good.
RadioShack introduced consumers to exciting and affordable gadgets and electronics that have become household items. As we cleaned out our historic archives in Fort Worth, Texas, we uncovered a cache of iconic memorabilia in 12 huge legacy safes, including: unused original TRS-80 Microcomputers, Realistic Transistor Radios, Tandy computer software games, original brick cell phones, gold commemorative watches and so much more. We all remember coming into RadioShack whether it was for the battery-of-the-month, new walkie-talkies, or to check out the newest RC toy cars. Many of these nostalgic items will be up for auction over the next 30 days.
At the end of this month, RadioShack will be closing its doors at all but 70 retail store locations as we migrate to RadioShack.com and we cannot thank you, the RadioShack family, enough for sharing in the journey throughout the years. We have heard countless stories and truly appreciate the millions of employees and customers that have made RadioShack their neighborhood convenience electronics store for the past century and we invite every home in America to come innovate with us one last time.
RadioShack will be hosting the online auction beginning today, May 26, 2017 at www.radioshack.com/auction/. Check in regularly over the next month as we will be revealing over 500 RadioShack classic items for auction.
Again, be sure to visit your local RadioShack location this Memorial Day Weekend for your last chance at clearance pricing or visit us at www.radioshack.com !
We cannot thank you enough for your patronage and support over the years and continued support as we shift to a primarily online business.
