Ez ryder Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I do not get how these big stores have all the tools they need to grow a business to the size they do and have next to nothing to offer in a on line presence any different from any nickel and dime online kitty litter sales site .

Zambroski Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 i went into the new Dick's sporting goods they put in last year last week to peruse and do some shopping, then on the way home stopped by my regular haunt, Gander Mtn. I was surprised how dated it looked after being in Dicks. I mean it just looked dark and dingy. Wow...never noticed it before I guess. Oh well, still spent more there than I did Dick's. Better prices and it's a local shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ez ryder Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I don't get how any one is sticking cash in to brick and mortar stores un less they are very specific and not a lot of other options like say guns and only guns local hardware u need now and don't care about price stuff or to bulky to ship like lumber tile plumbing . and even that I order on the phone and have dropped on site.

I would not be getting into the brick and mortar retail business these days. Amazon is just killing em. It's going to be bad for property tax revenues for alot of places as commercial property taxes have been huge contributors for many towns. But hey, you'll save $4 online!

Sarcasm aside, the average consumer can save significantly by buying online vs brick and mortar. One area is auto parts, Rock Auto destroys places like Auto Zone, NAPA and O'Reilly for the exact same parts, significant savings. 5 minutes ago, spin_dry said: brick and mortar stores are masters at fucking municipalities out of revenue. not sure if it's going to be a great loss.

We have a Scheels that is the preferred stop for that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have everything. My son is a big boy and I never have any problems finding athletic stuff that fits him there. I hate shopping but love that store.

I might have stopped there twice, and never, ever, ever on the weekend or around any opener where you can kill something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
