Anybody from Ontario remember "Greensville" electronics in Dundas ?? (circa
1960 or so)
I still remember buying 813's... 2 bux each or 3 for 5.00... brand new old
stock c/w original military packaging and sealed on each end with a yellow
sticker....
Original 19 sets never uncrated for 19.95...
Three floors of wonderful things when I was 14 years old.... got my first
ARC-5 with tunable IF for a few dollars...
They also had a locked cabinet full of Lee Enfield 303's that they sold to
deer hunters for the grand total of 16.95 each... and threw in a gun case
for an extra 25 cents...... extra clips were 1.00 each... they were the
local depot for hunting licences as well...
They seemed to just disappear over night, lock, stock and barn...
