It boils down to loyalty,customer service,customer respect,good advice without a pricetag,and consistency,and time invested by both parties.For example you won't get this fish until It's fully quarantined and feeding.As a customer of Golds for 13 years now,I've never been Ignored,no buzz off smile"we might have some later bull#$%^",or no you can't have that,It's display.It's experience over time, not pics on the web.Plus I like a fish store where nobody is sitting while dealing with me.

Or not, I dunno ... but point being I'm not sure it's 100% necessary to have a complete online inventory up to date to the minute... but a small online presence probably trumps no online presence at all.

For me, that small online presence does make a small difference. It's like I'm being invited to shop there, versus "We will do OK without your business." Truth is, most businesses will probably do fine without my business anyhow, so I try not to take it too personally, but OTOH when I feel like I'm being invited to come shop ..... I might just. Food for thought...

Don't take this the wrong way as I seen to have started a bit of a fire storm with my earlier comments & don't want to assume anything but are you with Golds?
