Boeing Surplus Store
August 26th, 2005 at 23:54It’s been a long time since I’ve shopped at the “Boeing Surplus Store”:http://www.boeing.com/assocproducts/surplus/index.html, but a “recent post on Cool Tools”:http://www.kk.org/cooltools/ jogged my memory. If you like to fiddle around with old computers and electronic equipment it’s definitely a cool place to visit once in a while. Back when I lived in Seattle for a couple months in the late 90s I ran down to Kent a few times and bought a couple used large screen monitors there for a fraction of their original price. If I still lived in that part of the state I’d probably visit at least once a month to see if there were any cool deals. There’s a lot of stuff that could best be classified as junk, but it’s cool junk and there’s usually some good stuff mixed in as well.

I stopped by the Boeing Surplus store the other day and to my surpise it was empty.
Closed down, lock, stock and barrels.
B O E I N G S U R P L U S is CLOSED!
A Lost Treasure and a loss to Boeing as a public appearance.
