not sure if this is the correct board for this, but...
How many of you use price as the ultimate determining factor when frequenting a pet store?
Do you go to the one with the best price or the best selectin with the highest quality?
I am a blue collar worker, no extra money and I should be more frugal. BUT when it comes to my hobby price is almost irrelevant. Almost. LOL.
seriously though, dont you agree that good selection and high quality are worth the price? I mean, it aint cheap keeping a stores tanks in top shape. we all know the price of additives and water changes. Not to mention quality staff salaries.
I worked over a year in a well know LFS in Jersey. Once I was a customer in for over 10 years. And it amazes me how in the store and here and other boards people were more concerned with comparing prices than comparing quality. Maybe alot of hobbyists dont know hwo to determine quality. I dont know. What's your opinion?
