Been in a great many weird spaces, but your post brought to mind an electronics store in Tulsa 30-years back.
They didn’t seem particularly happy to have you there, but c’mon in, I guess. It was like a library of ancient electronic bits. Rows and rows, 10’ high, of dusty, crusty bits in bins. Well and exactly labelled!
Still have some seriously funky LEDs from that place. Found a replacement for my 1980 IBM PC power light! Rectangular, red, wrapped in white plastic, original, perfect. I got 4x-bank pink LEDs, triangular LEDs, all before the internet and Chinesium manufacturing.

I’d kill to teleport there again.
