"out of stock is a dirty word at Teleservicecenter" the ads proclaimed. The place was a strange mish-mash of gospel singers L.P.s components and 'disco' stuff. Nonetheless an interesting place and another sad loss; I'm glad you reminded me.

Incidentally, for the pedants; 1) "out of stock" is, I know, 3 dirty words.
2) I use the 'center' spelling deliberately because that's the one the owner used (and it bugged me at the time)

And lastly, if you went in for an item they hadn't got they used to say "we don't sell them" so, as it said, they were never "out of stock"
