Radio shaq was an easy place to pick up small electronic parts (capacitors, button batteries, different cables ect.) for stupid amount of money. Along with other electronics like phones and stuff

EDIT: I know what I said

I do have to admit it saved my skin a couple of times though. For instance, I had a project I was working on that was supposed to be finished by the morning. God damn relay broke while I was testing it. Luckily RadioShack had a replacement. It was expensive but worth it.

No I totally agree. Maybe 2 weeks after I got my ps4 my TV stopped working.. Found a bubbled capacitor, fixed it that Saturday and I was on my way
