No big deal. Overpriced, staff didn’t know their toys, and limited selection. We went into the store once or twice a year, then bought what we wanted, for a lower price on Amazon.

I’ll miss them. We have a precious little granddaughter whom we could “persuade” to come visit us with the bribe of the toy of her choice. Mom and Dad were always to busy to make the trip. But when cute little daughter pleaded long enough, they would eventually crack.

It is wonderful when people visit our local bicycle shop, talk to the owner about bikes, helmets, and accessories for an hour...and then drive home to order online to save $5.00.

I think that’s horrible. I buy online often but I would never walk into a store to shop and then buy online.

The fate of lots of retail these days. They are the show room for the Amazons etc..

Agreed. The layout prices and selection just sucks. There is no reason to go there at all. Even when I popped in there during Christmas ready to buy...nothing inspired me to part with my money. A shame. I miss the days when Lionel Kiddie City gave them competition.
