Seriously How Do Some Store's Stay Open!!!

Tell you what grizz, I know how you feel! Ive been in that very LFS just long enough to turn around to walk out. I have no idea how you can run a shop like that. We have a LFS in RMH that is not alot better. It may be cleaner but not run any better. I know between myself and local friends in the hobby they lost over 6000 smackers in the last year. All you can do is take the paycheque elsewhere. JL gets things here within 3-4 days.

I have ordered dry good's from J&L during there last Boxing Day Sale, would like to do a group livestock order after my 165 is up for a few new residence. Will post when ready if anyone else is interested.

Go onto Fauna Classified and into the Canadian Board of Inquiry, he has an entire thread for just him and his "shop" you will find its not just with SW reptiles as well. I seen a couple months ago he was trying to buy stuff off people on here because noone would sell to him.

Haha, *insert owner's name here*.... Hahahaha... That guy is just too much. Its not the livestock/'product' sales that keep him open... its other 'sales'...

You guys just HAVE to boycott him. Everyone has to.

I bet if someone opened a small 'basement/garage' store even with cheap rubbermaid tanks, and a reptile breeder that bred alot joined up with this person, they'd put *insert owner's name again*, out of business within months.

I have heard all about this as well.

Guess it's a good thing I never went to that store in the 15+ years I lived in Red Deer. Barely knew it existed anyways.

Why not fill that 165 up with stock and sell it to to other reefers locally? Once the stock is getting low....... Fill it again! Every single sale you make (Even if it's just to break even.) ensures you take a potential sale away from that loser. It doesn't take a whole bunch for a LFS to feel it. Hehehe.

I have a well stocked 155 Bow Front that is going to be transferred in to the 165. But I have been thinking of setting up a bank of tank's in my office to do just that.
