My take on the store at that time was that it was very good at anticipating the next trend. When I bought that dino they were clearancing dinosaur stuff though it was still at the crest of the trend wave in the midwest. Its good (or not, depending on one's wishes) that they are into Tiki now. I was surprised that they actually made me a good deal on the dinosaur since I assumed they were an upscale boutique. Apparently an 8' dino was taking up too much floor space. Hey, maybe I should have called myself 8FT Dino. [ Edited by: tikijackalope on 2004-02-02 14:29 ]
