Got a message in my e-mail about the Ritz store I'd ordered prints from closing down. That was the store I'd expected to stay open; from an outsider's point of view, it was busy a lot of the time. | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements.

Does anyone know of any clearance specials they'll be having? They were always to expensive to buy equipment from, but I would sometimes pop in there to buy a few rolls of film whenever I needed some in a pinch. | | | |

There is one on Bay Area and one right across the street in the mall. I thought one of those would close, but both are staying open.

Not a single San Antonio closure; in fact, they are building out a new store on the north side. | | | |

Alas, the Clearance Center in Dallas is closing. I used to hear good things about that place.

Todd,
Which store are you referring to? Since you live in Fort Worth, I assume you are talking about one of the FW stores closing. I sure hope it's not the one on Camp Bowie. | | | |

Well the Clearance Center used to be the Pro shop for Wolf and then Ritz killed off most of the "pro shop" services and a lot of the inventory and turned it into the clearance center but there were still good deals at times. Guess I'll have to give it a visit and see what is there. | | | |

Probably the better stuff from the stores that are closing.
