All Electronics going out of business

[NJQA]

All Electronics, a vendor of electronic parts, is closing in August.  They were a source of some hard to find electronic parts (like old school high voltage mica transmitting capacitors).

Damn... I've dealt with them for over 33 years. And, up until this year, they've sent out printed catalogs. Yes, you still have Mouser and Digikey, but I've really never liked dealing with them that much.

Sad news. I've bought from them back to the 1990s, maybe even the 1980s? As recently as a year or two ago.

I might swing by the store before they close but they aren't open on weekends, which will make it hard to get there for the next ~2 months. (Inconveniently located near the junction of I-405 and US-101.)

Looks like I'll do an online order.

I chatted on the phone with one of the employees.  She said that it has been very busy with a lot of in store and on line sales since the closing was announced.

The reason for the closing was simply that the owners wanted to retire.  We’ve seen that before with Universal Radio, EZNEC, and others.  I can think of several other dealers/vendors that are probably approaching the same situation.

I made a large order to stock up on stuff that I think I will need in the coming year or so and some "nice to have" items. It took them two weeks to put it together and ship and it arrived two days ago. I'm glad they shipped it before the UPS workers go out on strike.
