[QUOTE="bento, post: 3135680, member: 36597"] You comment about being stuck is something that I notice with a lot of specialty shops like Game and Comic stores. Whereas traditional retailers will have sales to blow out old inventory, most specialty shop owners tend to have a packrat mentality. "Surely someone out there is willing to pay full price, he-he-he." One of the few chains here in DFW that continues to survive, quite well, is Lone Star Comics. Not a favorite of mine, but they are willing to hold annual sales to get rid of stuff. One that is a favorite, Generation X, keeps an eye on slow moving products and puts them in the sales bin when the time comes. Cutting your losses sooner rather than later certainly helps to free up cash flow, pay bills and buy new inventory! [/QUOTE]
