Yeah. You have some good points. Knowledge and a social atmosphere you can appreciate do go a long way. I never looked at it from that perspective, but now that I think about it part of the reason I love mom and pop shops so much, from books and comics to antiques to pet supplies, is because of the conversations I have there. Plus their advice is always appreciated and sometimes leads to additional sales, which is a win for both them and me.
