ORIGINAL: DR.B.S.
I must agree with you, you are in your own little world! 90% of the people I deal with are kit builders, in any event. We also stock a majority of kits, more so than ARF'S. THERE IS NO ARGUEMENT HERE, just you. I use the name DR. B.S. for people just like you, hint, hint.
Did you ever stop to think the world is right and you are wrong? Try it sometimes. Advertisement is key to selling any product. Can you imagine if no retailer advertised their product, WOW! Where are you thinking from?
In any even, have have a nice holiday from your planet from mine, Earth.
I've asked this before, never gotten an answer. Why don't I see hobby shop advertising?
Why no RC manufacturer ads?
For that matter, why no bicycle, gun, golf, or a hundred other pastime ads (other than on cable shows dedicated to that pastime)?
I asked Fliers 1 if he advertised his hobby shop on TV, (answer, no.), even tho he thinks advertising by AMA and presumably other shops/manufacturers would work.
I think there must be a reason why there is little to no advertising of these hobbies other than to enthusiast TV and print publications.
Preaching to the choir, so to speak.
Do you know the answer?
