And there is the key. The days of Brick and Morter
only stores for small specialized products is gone. But who cares. Just understand that retail is tough and now-a-days retail includes the internet. You would'nt run a buisiness without electricity or a phone, why would you avoid the internet.
I had a friend with a small store that sold wargames and toy soldiors. He complained that the internet was killing his buisness but refused to sell online or deal with ebay. He is long since out of buisiness. He instisted on running the shop with a buisiness model that he addmitted was not viable these days. He showed them; and now works in a call center.
