Closing

A typical Office Depot store in East Palo Alto...Image via Wikipediahttp://www.crunchgear.com/2008/12/10/office-depot-closing-112-locations/

Office Depot is closing 9% of their North American stores. They're just the latest... I bet this is the beginning of the end of the rediculous level of retail we've seen grow up over the past decade. Suburbs all the country are going to be littered with empty big-boxes that never should have been built in the first place.

Wanted

Good price paid for accumulations and estates of vintage mechanical watch and pocketwatch material and parts. Pre-quartz, pre-battery, Elgin and other American brands in particular, Swiss material less so. Note that I am a watchmaker working to keep the craft alive and well, I am not an antique dealer looking to buy and resell.
