Surplus City ready to close the doors

In what owner David Lippincott describes as "a final goodwill gesture" before Surplus City closes on June 24, employees have been instructed to ignore prices tags on everything left in the store and accept all reasonable offers,
What doesn't sell will be auctioned off on July 8th.
Surplus City, at 2732 W Colorado Ave., sold military surplus and outdoor gear on the city's West side for 61 years until it finally lost out to big box stores and a population shift to the east.
