RE: BEWARE
CombatPigg - There is a hobby shop right down the road from where I live. It was owned by a guy and his wife. He was into cars and always building his own car on the counter when customers came in. He'd answer your questions if you asked, but otherwise wasn't interested. First thing that happened first time I walked in the store, his wife was sitting by the front. I said, "Hi" and she just scowled at me like she hated me. Turns out she treats everyone like that. I went back once for an emergency part, but never went back again. It's now under different ownership and I haven't had reason to go back, but I hear it's a much more pleasant environment now. Still mostly cars though.
I agree with everything in your last post. We have the power to boycott. This thread just struck me bad because of how it was done. But if a person doesn't like a company then I agree they shouldn't do business with them.
