What were the prices like? Anything interesting for sale there that is not found in other stores?

  Nothing to make it any different from any other computer store, except for one thing. It was 5 minutes away from me. I was able to run in, find the needed thing, and then go back to doing what was needed. Didn't need to wait for UPS to show up the next day. I was very thankful that MicroCenter has not been forced to close from websites like most of the other brick&mortar stores have had to do.

  There is one close to me in the DC area. The biggest thing is that they have just about everything you would want a computer/electronics store to have ... machines (PC and Apple), components, networking gear, highend gaming peripherals, hobbyist electronics/computers, repair services and a bunch of other related products and toys. Sometimes at work we are looking up server components for an upgrade/replacement, network switch and I think even rails for a server once then realize microcenter just down the street has it at about the same price. Most of this stuff just isn't available anywhere else in one place except online at this point.

      Lol yeah. I was looking up similar stores and nothing popped up. Thanks for the correction/knowledge.

      Yes, by me locally within a 30 mile radius. There's a few mom & pop style Computer Repair places, but I'm not expecting them to have an inventory. There are actually 3 Fry's within that 30 mile radius, but I don't even consider Fry's anymore. They are pretty much a joke to me at this point. CompUSA and other such big box stores were worth my time and money back when I had no money.
