like anything else mike i think you have to way the pros and cons.....are they going to have a minimum buy in? are you going to have to meet sales goals? can you move it or is it strictly a special order item for your area and customers.......

What Smoker said. It's always good to have more offerings for your customers... Unless it's going to hurt you. You probably won't sell a whole ton of them (unless you have a niche in your area for them). So if you need to meet sales goals or anything, it may not be worth it for you.

Well unlike down around smokers area... we've got a bunch of rich kids up here that can never make up their minds... They just want the best, but I am afraid that these may even be over their heads... That's why I want opinions... Although I think in alot of cases, smoker has an easier time pushing products simply because his clients are tight on funds and just wanna know what they can get for this amount... then buy it.

Michael, you can show them the common, the not so common, then show them the best...if they want the best, then daddy and mommy will buy them the best. That is how we sold more McIntosh than anyone else in the midwest.

While Terry's shop may be in the hood, the entire area he lives in isnt.

Just like Toledo, it has good and bad parts...

Oh wait, Toledo has NO good parts...lol
