I think I am going to miss Maplin. Mostly it was where I would go if I was in a pickle as a last resort - their prices were a bit too high - but it had gotten me out of trouble on many an occasion. I even bought stuff many times from their eBay outlet.

Maplin lost its way many years ago in my humble opinion. It was a "go to" as a last resort place for me, mainly as they only ever stocked 1 or more likely 0 of any component. They had plenty of expensive toys or gizmos in store, but as an electronic store the shops offered little. Yes you could order the part and get it posted, but at this point you could order it and get it posted cheaper elsewhere. Sad to see it go,........the world it is a changing .
