| We are very lucky here in York to have two pretty good model shops. I try to use both if I can but they can't compete with the online shops for stock variety and price. So if I need something from the online store I quite often have to add all sorts of stuff to make up the minimum order and thats a loss to the model shop, sadly. The thing the model shops have in there favour is the personal contact, knowledge and experience. They need to trade on this somehow. get a community of modelers interested and involved, The games workshop people do a great job in this respect I think.
I would be very sorry to loose the shops here, I can't afford to buy everything from them so what do we do? |
