[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 476964, member: 1408"] As others have said , although it can be sad , time & technology marches on . Reading Prodave's post .. I find the staff in our Dixons unfriendly and certainly ageist . Blockbusters was a prime example . Suddenly popular to rent the latest films on VHS ...then the purchase price dropped so people bought the film...then VHS was replaced by DVD , also affordable ...so endeth the Film rentals on the High Street . Now you can get every film ever made on a chip the size of a dust mote . And with greedy councils & landlords jacking up rents , those big stores must cost mega money compared to online warehousing manned at low labour costs & delivered for 50p. [/QUOTE]
