I wanted to get an XLR to RCA cable today; as Maplins is no more, I checked our Curry’s / PC World about 500 yards away because they quite often have useful cables. They had nothing. I asked why they’d stopped selling cables, and got told it was because Maplins had closed. Apparently Maplins used to share their cables stock with PC World, so now they’ve gone, so have PC World’s cables supply, which is a nuisance.

Whether Peter Jones does anything with it, or has just bought it to stop anyone else doing anything with it remains to be seen.
Hope so - today I got dragged around town with the Mrs...in months/years gone buy I would go to Maplins to escape (only 1 guitar shop where I am based and the stock really doesn't turnover at all, so there is not a lot to looka t once you have been there once or twice). Expensive it was, but always good for the odd component.

Yeah, that is so very true. I got a Humax sat box with a hard drive for little more than one would cost online. And I would have had to pay postage on top of the online price. I hope they make a comeback and that Ireland is included in any re-openings of stores.

Their christmas catalogue was a sight to behold for a ten year old me.
I miss Maplin though I only really used them for emergencies. Y'know, when I urgently needed a remote control car or weather station.
