After Larry closed it David Partek bought the store and moved it to another two locations before finally closing shop.<br /><br />Nowadays the area is dominated by Game Kastle of Santa Clara. They have huge amount of gaming space, as well as tons of lead (Copplestone on the pegboard, what more could you ask for?)Msoonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10008303275708741187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99962604511527341.post-52726180418658273362011-02-05T23:25:28.568-08:002011-02-05T23:25:28.568-08:00Man, I'm sad to see that place closing.

Although, very friendly and accessible, they tend to cater for the younger crowd. They must be doing something right though, as they appear to be thriving post-internet/video game era...:)<br />I think you may be correct though, in that historical (real world)gaming will remain the preserve of us 'fossils'...hmmm<br />Regards,<br />MontyMontyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230149195753516430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99962604511527341.post-52499988836081525032011-02-04T18:09:14.393-08:002011-02-04T18:09:14.393-08:00Very thoughtful post.
