I seem to only remember one of these in Ohio, in Canton on 30th Street NW.

The narrator points out that Best was kind of a destination with their own character, maybe that's why it's no fun to go shopping anymore - companies simply have no character about their business, and one box looks like another.

I vaguely remember the logo but dont think i ever went in one of their stores. Awesome looking buildings, i doubt we will ever see anything like them again.

Yeah, by the time the 90s rolled around the catalog showroom store was an obsolete concept. There was another one called Service Merchandise that was more widespread, they had a similar concept and a similar fate.

I remember service merchandise, they had conveyors and your product came rolling down after ya paid. It was cool as a kid.

I hope retail finds a way to survive, i hate amazon. Half their shit is counterfeit
