Members Handstitched Posted March 9, 2019 Author Members Report Posted March 9, 2019 G'Day, Saw this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJTKtkqSEVsly While its mostly about the electronics business, it does very briefly talk about Charles Tandy and the Hinckley Tandy Leather Co. part of the business. Its a trip down memory lane for some. Tandy Australia has pretty much shut up shop , and operate online in Oz $$ , but shipping goods from the US . How healthy is the Tandy Leather business in the US ? HS Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called?

alpha2 Posted March 11, 2019 Report Posted March 11, 2019 I'm in Fort Collins, Colorado, which is between Denver and Cheyenne, Wyoming. I'm actually heading up to Cheyenne Tandy today. It's only about 40 minutes away, and it gets me out of the house for a couple of hours. Denver has at least three Tandy stores, but I don't go there since I retired. Cheyenne doesn't have the selection that the Denver stores have, but they have everything I need right now. If I had to order online, I wouldn't be ordering from Tandy. So, Tandy seems to be doing okay in the US. But I think it's mostly local people, and those that haven't priced other online outlets, or those that don't know what good leather looks like.
