Another New Pet Superstore in Richmond, BC

[titus]

Hello,

It looks like with them being just down the road from Big Al's, it would be easy to negotiate a good price on tanks, stands etc. by just playing off one store against the other.

Anyway with all these fish stores in one area somebody will have to fold, it will be a battle of attrition until one store packs it in.

Um... this makes me wonder why shoppers tend to not shop between say clothing retailers as much as shopping for their hobby equipment or animals.

With the markup we have in most of the equipment (that I know), and live stock (that I don't know but I doubt it is high anyway considering all the expense, maintenance, time), it's difficult to keep us in business compared to shopping at Harry Rosen for a $125 Genuine Harry Rosen belt, which probably has 700% markup on it.
