Nuts with the"obamanomics" guys.
I posted that about West Marine because I dont' feel they should go out of business, but figure out a way to survive in a down economy. It seems that Overtons, and Cabella, are doing just fine, and they share a lot of the product line. Losing business, and the jobs it supports is never a good thing and shouldn't be ill wished upon by anyone. |

They have a great selection, especially stainless hardware, but a small premium will keep customers going there for the convience, but when you can buy zincs online for 50% of WM price, that is out of the convience level. |

Isn't that the object of business... or at least one of them... not go out of business, increase profit/market share? Maybe they have some underlying problems that are causing them problems... don't know much about them specifically, but their customer service seemed pretty good when I was looking for a gift. Maybe that was just salesmanship. -- Nom=de=Plume |
