Ho I see! I only went to Winnipeg once. I would think Northern Manitoba look similar to where I am. Quote:

HI!!!!
ANOTHER YKer!! I grew up in Yellowknife, moved away when I was 16 ('97) and was back from '99 to '01... I actually used to work at JJ Hobbies, is it still the only LFS up there?? We didn't carry any SW then but were able to order stuff in if you would pick it up the day it came in - no holding facilities!! I don't miss the winters but I do miss the people! It's a great community, how long have you been there for?

Hi!
I have been here for the last 8 years. Maybe we meet  . Yes JJHobbies is still the only store. They tried to keep SW last year but gave up after to many lost. They also told me there is no money to make out of SW. I don't know what to say to that.

I think YK is a big enough city that if they were to bring in the supplies and make it available to more people that it would go over well. Did you bring the stock you currently have from down south?

I orther most from Aquarium Illusion in Edmonton. I would preffer to orther from an online store where I can see the stock and prizes but for now it's fine.
The only problem is the cost of shipping with canadian north. It's insane.

Yeah I know. This is why I use to do this myself. I usually don't have any problem as long as I take arrangement to get my box the same night it arrive.
I will give a try and get some new shails from JJHobbies sometime this months.
