The Geek Store is coming to town!!! I’m so excited! We had MicroCenter in St Louis and it was fabulous!
All of the other stores of this type have gone out of business in town. What’s changed that this time it will stay successful against Amazon when others have failed?
Indy hasn’t had a store of this type for years (if ever). Microcenters are small and laser-focused on PC components. They cater to enthusiasts and they also have an excellent site-to-store eCommerce presence. Relying on Amazon and other online sources for computer parts – especially when you’re in the middle of a build – is a bad experience. It’s much better to be able to walk into a store and buy what you need.
The Radio Shacks, Circuit Cities, and Fry’s of the world fell apart because they ended up deviating from their original business model by selling garbage that enthusiasts did not want. Fry’s specifically had a falling out with their PC component suppliers and decided to use their huge-footprint stores to sell a hodgepodge of unrelated good that nobody would ever go to Fry’s for, all while having a terrible website. Microcenter doesn’t have those problems.
I, for one, am happy to not have to drive to Cincinnati to get PC components same-day. And every time I’ve been in a Microcenter, it’s been packed.
High quality response. +2
Good Response Robert. Thanks. I’ll actually shop at the Microcenter, so I hope it does well and sticks around.
Wawa and now MicroCenter. Great but not sure about the location.
lol it’s a lot better than Fry’s location. much easier to access for most people in the metro. the extra couple miles on 465+69 to get to fry’s are always super congested
Love me some MicroCenter. I’ve bought many thousands of dollars of PCs, cameras and other gear at their Cincinnati store.
Finally!! I have been asking them for this for years lol. No more trips to Cincy for computer parts!
Couldn’t be more pleased to read this news! Welcome to Indy!
Fills a hole that Fry’s lost their way on. Nice.
can’t wait! as Robert H said, nothing worse than missing something during a build and not finding it local and waiting days to finish!
