Anyone remember Square Deal in Patchogue L.I. ??


Just curious for those who frequented the Square Deal store in Patchogue LI. The store has been gone for awhile...but, I really enjoyed visiting and buying my first real audio system back in the late 80's. Steve K was a really great salesman and I learned a lot about audio from him( and my Dad)..Anyone remember?

OK Guys, this may age me a bit but do you remember when they were on Main Street, you rememebr the sons but I worked for the parents way back 'in the good old days' starts as a kid work with my Dad doing delieveries and Tv repair IN THE HOME! best memeery is of that big red and black 'tube case'. well thanks for listening - I just thought for a laugh to google old jobs and here is was. I moved upstate long before the move.
Boy do I remember that store, I remember the store on Main Street before they moved. Bought my first turntable there it was a Panasonic mini changer and Mike Brody sold it to me...great guy.

I worked there for quite a few years on and off doing car stereo installations., in fact I'm still using my ADS 980 speakers and my Tandburg 3006 A power amp. One bad thing working at that  place was as fast as you got paid you would give it back to them in spades buying equipment. 

Every time something new came out like speakers, a new receiver, or something Mike Brody would be playing with it in the sound room. Of course you had to have it what ever it was so your old, (and I do use that term loosely) most of the time the equipment you were trading in was only a couple of months old and in the used room it went. I remember changing my car stereo so much I should have installed it with Vecro.

 How many of you remember the Sound Mobile a 68 Mercury Cougar with the nose cut off. Used to sit in the middle of the store had every car stereo they sold mounted in it. Later they built the car stereo display and got rid of the car. Ahhhh those were the days, I can go on forever.
