Well, I escaped ARO blowup and GPS drop so far, but not some other drops this year. ;)

Unfortunately, I don't have women/teenager friends to consult about retail. There was someone I knew who was great - she knew Starbucks before it became the huge company - but she's no longer in USA.

My wife and me are both outside mainstream in our tastes. Most what we like is not a crowd magnet. She likes "XXI forever" (Forever 21), but the company is private. As I mentioned on this thread, she did buy TJX and AHONY this year, we'll see how that works out ;).

Like VPRT, I'd probably buy GPS here in normal market. But with so many other opportunities, I'll pass for now.
