Toronto Science Shop EfstonScience Closed; Putting Up What’s Left for Auction

The EfstonScience science and astronomy store, located on Dufferin near the 401, has closed after more than 40 years in business. When I was in high school, I used to go there all the time to check out the telescopes, science experiment kits and other stuff that made the place a nerd’s toy store for me.

I’ve just found out that they’re auctioning the last of their stuff online. As of this writing (Wednesday, October 31st at 3:15 p.m.), there are about 20 hours left in the auction. See what they’ve got on sale, and if you want it, place a bid!
