They declared bankruptcy yesterday.

So, is there any other place I can go to buy electrical components?  I
mean, for a planned project I would just buy online.  But for an emergency
repair, it sure was nice to have a local store.

I once spent hours disassembling my mini-van power sliding door to figure
out that the problem was a corroded limit switch
<http://www.radioshack.com/spdt-switch-with-3-4-roller-lever/2750017.html#.VNTe9J29l8F>.
Luckily I could pick up a new switch from Radio Shack and fix it, instead
of having to reassemble it broken and wait for an order to arrive.
