By the way, Chris also mentioned that he was thinking of doing something on a smaller scale in the future, once you step foot into this hobby you are hooked for life!!

So basically your telling me I would have to choose between the 2? If I ever own my own shop, I can no longer be a hobbyist?JAR said:AND go broke even fasterBayReefer415 said:In a way yes, but I would consider myself a hobbyist/vendor.

Trust me when I say I was pretty darn close to doing exactly that. I was born and raised in Bernal Heights in the city and know all about the dwindling population of LFS's. The reputation his store had wasn't the best though and I'd rather start fresh.Coral reefer said:Well you just missed your chance to buy Chris out and be the only store in the city.
I'm trying, I can only go as fast as my realtor will allow me. It won't be in the city though as I have moved to San Bruno but it will be the closest for sure.Coral reefer said:Hurry up! We need a lfs here!!!

San Bruno is awesome, you'll be able to park there without fear of having your car towed or an $80 parking ticket because the $4 you put in the meter wasn't enough to look in the store and chat a bitBayReefer415 said:I'm trying, I can only go as fast as my realtor will allow me.
