GW = George W.

Man they really put the screws to you dont they. I guess it figures. They basically make the consumers take it in the arse, why not make the retails and distributers take it too. Question, if you go through a distributor, do they still lord their rules over you, or is only direct sales affected as such? I guess it wouldnt be the worst thing to start without GW, but that could effect the first impression which I think is pretty big for a game store. Game stores seem to get so much business through word of mouth.

In other areas of discussion, the game shop I was refering to here has about 1K sq. ft. and they do not have comix and action figures and other detractors from the game genre. What they do carry is more family games, though not as much of a percentage as Game Keeper did. Mostly poker paraphinalia, Go, Chess, puzzles and MB/Hasbro games. All in all their nerd/family mix is probably 70/30. Not the cheapest store around, but the property is expensive here. I am not sure how the target marget mix is though. It could be different in the LA South Bay.
