Electronics king 'Crazy Eddie' Antar dies at 68


His prices were "in-SANE!" And his fall from grace was spectacular.
Eddie Antar, whose Crazy Eddie retail chain was once as much a part of the New
York landscape as pizza slices and the ubiquitous yellow cab, has died.
He was 68.


I have fond memories of shopping at Crazy Eddie's.

Me too! I lived on 30th between Park and Lex, one of his stores was within walking distance, I loved to buy TDK MA-XG 90's in the 5 pack box dirt cheap :happy3:

Others had made cheezy commercials before, he made it an art form, R.I.P. buddy!!
