Diki,
Point well taken..
I happen to know 1st hand what it is like to try and make it on a 20-25-30% profit margin.. After the expense of paying rent, employee's , utilities etc.. it is very difficult to make it owning a MI music store.....

Just the cost of hanging enough instruments on the walls and floor just to make 2500 sq ft look like a music store is expensive.

So I appreciate your point of view..
