Thanks again Neil
 

I just bought a cool Lime Green Anemone, a Pink Tip Haitian Anemone, as well as a Sexy Shrimp from Neil, and they look great in my Tank, if any one in the Edmonton area wants to save allot of money I would suggest having a look at what he has for sale. It's nice to be able to save money, especially when the local stores seam to be charging so much.

Neal,

We'll do some invert business next Friday!

It's called Overhead,
Don't mean to hijack you there Neal but I have heard that comment to many times and it just strikes a nerve....

Without disrespect, and with a distinct feeling of IBTL, they have overhead in Richmond, Burnaby and Calgary, too, to mention three places I've been recently where I can find significantly lower prices at retail than I can here in Edmonton. Pricing is complicated, and "overhead" is a simplistic rejoinder.

Whoa! wait a sec on that one. Richmond, Burnaby, Calgary? I think population density and the economic mix support many more hobbyists than Edmonton (just MHO).

Having run a retail operation in the past, and currently running my own service-based shop now (with employees and expenses) I understand how hard it can be to compete on price with others with lower overhead or bigger markets.

There is a pretty wide spectrum on pricing in Edmonton however, AI & BA seem to be the most out to lunch when I've comparison shopped. Sometimes it's ok to pay a bit more knowing you'll get a certain level of service in return.

Discussions with retailers provided the advice for me to enter this hobby, and without support - we'd be left to our own devices.

Anyhoo, that's my 2 cents.

What is IBTL?

Economics 101: Supply vs Demand.

I have only been into the hobby for 4 weeks now and I am already seeing a lot of the things people are saying about the retail stores in this city. How is it that I can buy 50lbs of Jakarta, which is not a bulk order by any means, from Vancouver, have it sent by westjet and in my hands within five hours for under $7.00 per lb when I have seen it as high as $10.00lb in the city. Now when I actually do buy fish, I will consider the quarantine facilities and service of the local shops. But from what I understand there is no guarantee on any fish and I may want to take a chance to save up to 50% on livestock. Even if one does kick off before it gets here I can still try one more time and have spent the same amount of money.

I want to support local business. However for example, when I have to go on a local shops website to get the same chain to match the $100 + difference on lights, then there is something seriously wrong.

Well that is my two cents.
