Forum Overview :: Gamerasutra :: I'll always have a soft spot for Fry's electronics

[quote name="blackwater"]Of course, their customer service was never anything other than dogshit, even during the glory years. That wasn't the point! The point was those huge stores full of computer stuff. Everything you could want, back then. Every Fry's had a theme: Wild West, Egyptian Temple, etc. In the 2000s I remember putting together a computer with parts from Fry's. Building a computer felt like so much fun back then. It was sad to see them go. They were starting to die as early as 2019, and then COVID obviously dealt them a mortal wound, like a lot of other businesses.[/quote]
