    I'd like to meet that canadian crazy guy, so he can sass me good then write about it. I'd be immortalized in the Book of Wrath, I'm sure.

    Cool, Your on my side of town now. I'll have to definitely stop by. I usually go out there to check out the Great Northern Record exchange. I'll have to add your new store to my route. When you get a chance post the address.

    Yeah, I can't wait to check this store out! I live in Berea, so it's only about a 10 - 15 minute drive for me! Did you say it's already open? I'll drop by tonite or tomorrow!

    Yeah, let us know when and where. We will all stuff our wallet's full of cash and stop in!
    I've been to the East side store a handful of times, but haven't been there in awhile, the new store will be closer to me (I'm in Parma) and I'll definitely check it out.
    btw...hiring any help?...it might be really handy to have some of us collectors working for you when those great trade-ins come in and you're not there. :wink:

    Default Hiring?

    Indeed. Actually, my summer job just finished, so I'll be looking for a good part-time position for while I'm attending college (I'll be a college sophomore this year). I would be more than happy to come work for you! Let me know.

    Well it looks like it will open on Monday.

    The phone number is 440-801-9957.

    The name is North Olmstead Exchange.

    I have a partner who will handle managing the store and he will be doing all the hiring etc etc. He will be there most of the time as its across town for me. I will be there from time to time but if you do stop in let me know what you think.

    Sorry to go back to an old topic but are you guys familiar with The Gord. I used to work with him for a short while before he opened his own store. He's a good guy with an odd sense of humor. His website is great. I was up until 2 am one night reading through it.

    Default Store

    Hey, buyatari.....
    I stopped into your store yesterday. It looks like it shows definite potential. It sort of reminded me of Record Exchange (located nearby). Of course, it was the first day, but I think some decorations would really spice the place up (it's a bit plain looking), but your associates probably had not yet had any time to put them up. Also, selection seems a bit sparse, but, once again, it looks like it will improve in the coming weeks once the store gets settled in. All in all, I think the store looks very promising, and I look forward to visiting it again very soon.

    What is the address of your new store? What stores at the mall is it located by? I'm going to be in the area tonight and I wanted to stop by the new digs.
