    The transfer agent for the company would be able to trace your ownership. Remember, Tandy went through a name change to Radio Shack in May 2000 so it is the transfer agent for "Radio Shack" that you need to contact. Here is the contact for you:

    Transfer Agent

    Wells Fargo Shareowner Services

    P.O. Box 64874

    St. Paul, MN 55164-0874

    Phone: toll-free 888-218-4374

    Good luck!

    Great point that Doreen_M raises. There is a website that provides you the ability to reclaim your stock if it did become unclaimed. Here it is:

    http://www.missingmoney.com/

    There is no need to pay a fee for this service. As this site describes: The states have implemented active outreach programs designed to reunite unclaimed property owners with their lost or forgotten assets. To enhance the states' outreach efforts, MissingMoney.com, a national database, was established in November 1999 and is the only database endorsed by the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators (NAUPA). MissingMoney.com enables owners to perform comprehensive searches for lost assets required by law to be turned over to the states.

    Depending on what State you live in, you may have fallen victim to the old 'unclaimed property' issue as well. Typically if a transfer agent cannot contact you within five (5) years they are mandated by law to turn all assets in your name over to that states unclaimed assets division.

    So if it's been more than 5 years you may want to check with your own states unclaimed assets division before you contact the transfer agent. Chances are that's who has your stock :)

    The upside of that is that there is no charge for you to reclaim that asset, simply filing the proper forms with the state.

    Use a search engine and type in your states name followed by the words unclaimed property division and you can find the contact information there.

    Good luck!

    Contact Tandy. They will put you in touch with the transfer agent . They can look you up and you can file for lost certificates. This will come with a fee though. It will be a several month process too.

    E-mail the Tandy Corporation or go to their site. If the info is not there, make the investment of time and call their "Investor Relations" Department or a similarly named department. They should have [or should be able to direct you to] the documentation and the procedure you need to follow.

    The inventory certificates is barely attainable from the corporate or the shareholder; no government enterprise retains this preparation. If the corporate became dissolved in the U. S., then that inventory became declared valueless, so how are you presently waiting to declare possession of Philippine supplies? If the corporate went out of company multiple years in the past, then probability is the Philippine government has taken identify to the valuables for non-value of supplies taxes. Are you beneficial it extremely is extremely surely worth the conflict? stable success!
