In Australia you'd either end up in a Dick Smith's store or a Tandy's - basically the Aussie Radioshack where they started off selling CB radios and kit systems along with regular electronics like phones and so on.

Dick Smiths would sell Tandy clones, so the Dick Smith System 80 was riffling a TRS-80. The ads of the day are pretty fantastic.

Dick Smith also released his own brand of matches.
