Default Disappearing Hobby Stores

Posted By: Jim Dale

Lets face it. "I can get it on ebay for" means you don't need a store. Any online venue is going to offer up cards for less then a brick and mortar location with rent, utilities, and about the only thing they can argue back with it a lack of shipping and handling charges (no paypal or ebay fees maybe). That isn't going to be enough. The remaining card companies are reducing new card products (as they should) so the stores have even less to sell. And even then they have to compete with ebay sales of new product too. I can see them all being gone in 10 years.
