(COMMERCIAL) New Gaming Shop in Staines.
« on: July 26, 2013, 05:33:07 PM »
Tayload from Steve Dean's forum has recently opened a shop in Staines.

The Missing Geek, 12 Church Street, Staines, TW18 4EP

He's got a great sense of humour and I'd hate to see him lose it so go and patronize him if your in the Staines area.
I'll be going down to shoplift something as soon as I have a free day  ;)

Well I've lead an evil life, so they say, but I'll outrun the Devil on judgement day.

Sounds brilliant and only 38 odd minutes from home.

Good luck to him. We truly are living in the era of the indie game store!  :)

Ali-G the proprietor?
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

I wish him all the best.

It is a brave man who decides to open a bricks and mortar gaming shop these days.

I have heard some horror stories where the 'Big Boy' of the business makes a move to shut you down once you start becoming sucessful.

I have now made it a policy to always buy something whenever I visit an independent store.
I mean, there is always something shiny that you 'need' when you visit a store, is there not?
 ;)

Anything to keep these fellas in business is a good thing for us all.
Every little helps, as the 'Mahoosive Corporation' says.
 :D

Best of luck to The Missing Geek!
