Probably not a question I would directly ask a vendor since its not great advertisement for their business if their enthusiam for the hobby has changed.

I wonder if a Gynacologist would agree with you?

OK not going to touch that one (no pun intended.) I am sure if something is your life's passion there are plenty of examples of where what I suggested is not true. It was just a thought.

More in line with the topic I think increased competition is usually a good thing for the consumer. Although if the market is overly flooded with stores and a shop has to compete tooth and nail for sales then their buying power can be affected (reduced need for large purchases and inventory) and they may not be able to offer the same variety of products they would like to offer their customers. This could mean having to drive all over the place to get everything you want (which may not be a big deal.)

Although I am in the SW I am really close to RC so I am pretty lucky.

You have put so much time and effort into this already, that I have seen. I think you should just go through with it. Then you can also give me some free fish....heheheh ....oh and a free nano cube. LOL

You guys make me laugh with all your 30 min drive complaining.

With the way the deep SE has grown and the annexed land the C.O.C. has it will continue to grow.

I think 130th would be a great location.

Might even be interested in getting in on it!

Go for it. It is very tiring to drive 40+min for every little thing you may need.
Cranston and Copperfield been growing like crazy. After they build the big plazas, this is where the traffic going to be.
