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.
Best of luck to The Missing Geek!
