Tulsa Computer Stores
Have I left any computer stores off this list ? If you’ve been to any of these places in the last 6 months, please note the year and month you were there so we know they still exist. Which stores would you recommend ?
Places in Tulsa that sell used computers
Is there still a “Moose Lodge computer swap show” once every month ?
My sources are dated 2002, and say:
Tulsa Computer Show held by Computerfest Productions Every 3rd Saturday of every month 9:00 a.m till 2:00 p.m.

(Was at 1112 S YALE AVE ) 2003-03-06: I have bought a few things from “Byte me again” before, so I am stunned to walk up to the store today ( at 1112 S YALE AVE ) and find it totally empty. There’s not even any empty shelves inside, only a “for lease” sign in the window. Did it go out of business ? Byte me Again may close because Joyce is moving away soon.
2004-01-05: Byte Me Again has moved over to 21st and Memorial. She is on the West side of Memorial South of 21st. There is a strip mall that has a used game place, she is next to that.
A-1 new address is 2205 E 51st Street.
(it’s actually on 32nd st, 2nd building W. of Sheridan) DAV visited 2003-06-03. small store – about 10 or so desktop machines on display. I think this opened 2002-12

Do you know any other computer stores ?
Total PC Components Inc.: Now called H&S Computerdoras 11331 E. 20TH ST Tulsa, OK 74128-6401 http://www.tpcok.com/ (web site offline ?) http://www.yellowpages-ads.com/01108315
I like to look at and feel computer monitors and keyboards before I buy them. I like to see used computers boot up before I buy them. Computer cases and motherboards, though, I usually buy mail-order.
If I don’t need a top-of-the-line system (say I’m building a FireWall?? or a DigitalVCR?), it’s a lot cheaper to buy a used computer.
See NoteBook for Laptop recommendations.
Before buying a used PC for $300, check out what you can get new for $300:
“Kevin Savetz’ Guide To Buying a Ridiculously Cheap PC” “reviews, specs, buying tips, news, and hot deals on new computers for under $300. I only talk about ready-to-use PCs - these systems all come pre-built, with memory and a hard drive. You just need to add a monitor and (in some cases) install an operating system.” http://www.savetz.com/cheappc/
[FIXME: how do these places compare against each other ? against mailorder ?]
Oklahoma electronics recyclers lists many computer stores that buy old computers, as well as recycling companies that accept old printer cartridges, old cell phones, and other old electronics.
