Starabilias memorabilia store at Downtown Disney closes
Aug 42009 Filed under: Disney, Downtown Disney, Shopping Author: Matt
The Starabilias memorabilia store at Downtown Disney West Side recently closed their doors for good. The long-time tenant was rumored to be possibly closing because of the many sales they’ve been having.
The Starabilias Web site is still active and still lists its Orlando location. Calls and e-mails to the company have gone unanswered.
Starabilias is the second store to close this year at Downtown Disney West Side. Earlier this year, the Virgin Megastore closed. Its large location currently houses a Princess Diana Exhibit. That exhibit is scheduled to run through Nov. 30, 2009.
There’s no word what will ultimately replace the Virgin Megastore or Starabilias locations.

Store #2 has gone down and within months of the Virgin Megastore. Usually malls require an “anchor” store to attract other stores alongside it. I did not think the Virgin megastore was an ‘anchor’ but I wonder how it’s disappearance has affected business at Downtown Disney.

Yeah. I worked there a week, it was cool. Probably would have been one of the best jobs I ever had if not for an ill-fitting medium uniform (this girl is a *small* not a medium or large) oh that and they were closing.
