I hate going to my LHBS.
Dark, dreary, poorly arranged, lack of stock, rude owner and on and on.
After going to The Beveradge People in Santa Rosa Ca, I was reminded what a really good HBS was like.
This got SWMBO and I thinking.
We are not the only ones who detest going to the local store, obviously there is a healthy market, so why not open our own?
I was wondering if any of you either own your own HBS or have you looked in to it? If so, what are the pitfalls and hang ups related to owning one?
I am not looking for a business plan, although if you have one you want to send me feel free, but rather I was wondering if there were some issuses specific to a HBS that I need to be aware of that I would not know.
Any and all input would be appreciated.
I have experiance running a sucessful business and I think i can give the local guy a real run for his money.
Thanks in advance.
