The other one in SoCal was in Van Nuys near Saticoy and Sepulveda... My mother had to drive out there once when she bought a 35mm slide projector on La Cienega and it turned out to be out of stock after she'd paid and went to the back for pickup. I still have my Fedco card too! Interesting point about Fedco: Last purchase there was a 27" Zenith console for an elderly lady customer, and Fedco was the only place where I could find a new wood console that recently. That was at Christmas of '93. The TV had a nice 15-day life, then was smashed and crushed at 4:31 AM on January 17th '94 in the lady's apartment in Panorama City. She escaped OK. (Northridge Earthquake) I suppose that this was a good ending for it that likely saved me embarrassment since I recommended that TV to the lady not yet knowing what that dreadful A68ACT00X picture tube was like :(
