RUN YOU FOOLS: Apple wired extended keyboard $26, and other good stuff at radio Shack....

[max]

As mentioned before here, Radio Shack has a sale on Apple stuff, keyboards, trackpads, etc. Although the previous expectations was the sale being limited to stock on hand, the local store told me they order as needed, AND there is additional 10% off, at least right now.
It also applies to other Apple stuff like iPads.
I got 3 keyboards so far...

I got a keyboard too last week. Mine was $29.00. Good deals.

Gotta stop by the RS and see if there's anything.

Ack, i didn't have time for the last one, but I guess I will have to stop by now.

I just didn't have any available nearby before. I doubt things are any better now.

Used to have 3 RS within about 5 miles or so. Now the closest one is almost 20 miles away.
If they closed under-performing stores all of them gone is a bell-weather for the declined local economy.

I ended up getting 1 wired, 1 wireless and 1 trackpad.

First time I went in they didnt have the keyboards on the shelf, but when I asked the were in the back.

A few days later I went in for a trackpad -- they didnt have any -- but the guy checked the computer and found 2 stores with them, both about 2 hours away. he requested one from each store (one store had a person working that wasn't sure how to send it) to be sent to his store -- few days later he called and said they were both in. Just got one.

About $100 total for all 3. =)

Max,

Thanks for the heads up. Definitely an opportunity to grab a Magic Trackpad for my Macbook Pro at home and the Mac Pro at the office. I use the Macbook Pro with an external keyboard and mouse and it'd be nice to have a Magic trackpad for it.

Last time, I checked at the Radio Shacks near my home and office and they didn't have any of the Apple hardware in stock and couldn't order it. I'm going to try it again.

As bill mentioned, most of the Radioshack stores near me are gone. I went to three of the closest, all three were still open in late 2014 into early 2015, but all were completely debranded locations with no fixtures or signs. Nothing.

Hi everyone,

Just checked one of the stores. No stock. The only store in the area was a little farther away and they had just one. Not worth the trouble to go get it, assuming it really was in fact in stock. The store I was in refused to do a back order for me. Oh well.
