1. Are there any good audio/stereo discounters in the Boston area? (There are none here in the Northwest, and I'll be in Boston later this month so I thought I'd do some shopping for a Sony TC-K555 cassette deck. Best price in the Portland (Oregon) area is $390; Illinois Audio in Chicago sells it for $280... by mail.) Any comments on Trolley Stereo in Waltham? 2. In April, Sony told the audio/stereo mail-order discount houses that they could not sell Sony audio/stereo equipment (other than Walkman) to anyone more than 150 miles from the store. Does anyone know what the fair-trade laws say about this? (I've bought some good Sony equipment this way, and have saved a bundle, but, alas.... no longer. There aren't any mail-order discount houses within 150 miles of Portland. The mail-order discount houses say they can ship to a friend within the 150-mile radius, and he can forward to you... IF you have a friend in the area.) Thanks in advance for suggestions and comments. Rich Nute P.O. Box 1000 ...tektronix!tekecs!richn Wilsonville, Oregon 97070 503-685-2482
