Boschloo Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I remember back in 1999 or 2000 that Joy Electronics still had a catalog of NOS TI-99/4A hardware and modules. Even if the store is gone, what happened to all their inventory? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+acadiel Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I took an inventory of them back in 2000 - here's the pictures: https://www.hexbus.com/TI-99_4A_Home_Computer_Page/Joy_Electronics.html Rodgers passed away in 2008, but at some point, the inventory got stored in a warehouse. Some was OK and some got waterlogged (Dallas - lots of rain.) The family kept it along with his store/office supply inventory. At some point, Mike Dudeck purchased the remaining inventory after it sat in warehouses for many years from the family. You'd have to ask him for the date. Mike has been selling the inventory under "Mike's Musical Memories" on eBay for years. (On a side note, Mike has also bought out Tex*Comp and other vendors, I believe. Someone will have to bring all these up.) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 He also bought the final stocks from Ramcharged Computers and LL Connor. There may be others to add to that list. . . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhataKowinkydink Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 R.I.P. Fred - he was always a kind and honest guy to do business with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FarmerPotato Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I've purchased many times from mdude. I didn't know he bought out TexComp! TexComp overstock doesn't seem to be his style. On the other hand, from LL Conner all the CC-40 items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
