Mr. Karp: Harvey is a 75-year-old consumer electronics retailer. I think we're the oldest in the country. What we were founded on was customer service and the sales and installation of the best, the latest and most sophisticated of consumer electronics products available. So Harvey has always been the place where many manufacturers premiered their latest designs, and Harvey has always been a place that has gone the extra mile and holds the client's hand. TWST: Where are your stores? Mr. Karp: We have stores located in the Tri-State area. We tend to locate them in our clientele's backyard as much as possible: we have a store in Greenwich, Connecticut; in New Jersey, we have a store in Paramus and we have a new store down in Eatontown; we have a store on the North Shore of Long Island in Roslyn; we have a store in Mt.
