Default Annual Electronics Sale at Stampede Grounds?

Hey folks,

Some members of my family were mentioning that they thought they remembered that there is an annual electronics sale/fair somewhere at the stampede grounds. This doesn't ring any bells to me and I didn't have much to search on. Does anyone know of anything like this?

I believe it was Soundsaround who always had a big sale at the Big 4 Building. Soundsaround shut down within the last two years.

Proof that you can only do business like scumbags for so long.

Also in the last couple of years they held the events at their stores instead of the Big 4.

In addition to what psicodude said, they also refused to have any sort of a website other than to post their current flyer. IMHO that also brought them down, as people shopping for electronics are also the type of people to look online first.
