Gary, yeah, but they still have to pay leases, utilities, staff, etc. For them to add that many stores and have lower expenses kind of minds my boggle. I think the janitorial service alone would increase their expenses tremendously. <g>

I do like one thing about the store concept. It proves that the bizarre direct model can't work for long. I'm sure you will disagree. <g>

I will concede that they seemed to have an intersection of
knowledge and english language skills that is a little rare in
our local area. The are other local vendors that are both
cheaper and more competent though.

How many extra hundreds of dollar would you pay for a better sales
person?
