The topic which i read Thursday night said
"CALLING GEORGE KAYE!" Clearly Squeak was asking for my help. Is this OK with me? Yes! However, it did strike me with a chuckle because as I explained to you all yesterday morning when i replyed, that when Squeak emailed me with a request for a price quote, I explained to him that although I knew mine was a very competitive price, I hoped he would think of the importance of supporting the store which could and should support him! I thought i did a good job of prooving my point, but when I saw his post after purchasing his 550 I laughed and thought I wonder how long it would take for Squeak to need the support of the knowledgable dealer rather than the "box" house. Then, just a few days later, the large "CALLING GEORGE KAYE" appeard on my computer and guess what: I was right! I like Squeak as I do everyone else using this forum, and just like Fran says, I enjoy sharing my "passion" with the rest of you. I do own a music store. I do need customers. I do get new customers from this wonderful forum. I posted what I did yesterday because the moment struck me, especially after my comunications with Squeak prior to his purchase. I'm not mad at anybody and was just using this forum as a way to explain what I think is a growing concern in all industrys today with the way shoppers buy their goods compared to the way it used to be. There are good and bad sides to both, I was just pointing out what seemed to me to be a plus for the little guy.
Thanks for listening
