RE: Another Local Hobby Shop Bites the Dust
Although I mostly agree with your thread...
My house is WAY cleaner than the LHS near me. I don't like driving 20 miles to find something unless I need it badly. The LHS is a pigstye, and I've often wondered if they were all like this. They put up prices that are marked up insanely high, and the guy behind the counter has a stick up his lower region.
I get less grief and disease from shopping from my computer chair.
Granted, the LHS owners that support the hobby deserve support back, but some LHS's are just in it for the money. They dont care about customer service, they dont care about having full inventory, they ignore you as you walk around looking hopelessly for that one part you need.
My opinion these are the ones that deserve to go under.
