I wish you luck !
Don't make your customers haggle on prices. I hate this also.
I really like going to a hobby shop and look around, just wish they had something to look at.[X(]
One thing missing in this area is ... newly released items will never be stocked. It seems that until it's a proven seller, it won't show up on the shelves ... maybe not even then. When is it a proven seller ??? .... after all the mail order places have made a fortune on it. It's hard to get your hands on new products through a local store. Are not new items used to get people "IN" the stores?
As an example ... I'm still waiting for the local shop to stock the Slimline Ultra Fueler ... I even told him about the product. Meanwhile I have purchased several mail-order. Eyeballed and purchased the first one in Toledo last year.
Forget about handling a 9CAP or JR 10X ... they are too expensive to stock.
If I want to see a Multiplex xxx, it will be when I get it from the mail order firm ( or Toledo).
How about that new charger that came out 6 months ago .... nope ![>:]
I think you get my point.
I do have a shop I could go to ... 45 minutes one way through heavy traffic.
By the way .... They do mail order also. SO I E-MAil them my business.
I wish you luck !!!
