Radioshack Ditches T-Mobile for Verizon

As a former Radioshack employee, I think I can speak for everyone working for Radioshack when I say "FINALLY!".
Let me explain. Radioshack carriers AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile. However, every third customer in the door would ask for Verizon. Radioshack employees work off of commission, so every customer who comes in and leaves because they can't get a Verizon phone is a lost sale, and a lost commission.
When Radioshack started carrying T-Mobile, there wasn't a mad rush of customers. In fact, in the month my store carried Radioshack before I left, we didn't sell a single T-Mobile phone. It didn't help that there was no coverage in our area.

But now Radioshack is getting Verizon phones, and I'm sure the employees are happy about this. The dropping of T-Mobile won't be a huge loss, especially with AT&T in the process of buying T-Mobile. This is a good move for Radioshack, and may help boost their sales and popularity.
