Eric StevensI'm quite interested in what Jonas considers to be a "big" store. B&H is a 70,000 square foot store. Something like 5,000 people a day shop at B&H. How would you fit them in a "tiny" store.

Was a really small store with one half hobby and the other photo-related stuff. Pretty cramped, but really nice british salesman that I talked to.Eric Stevens
Here is their web site. It gives some idea of their size. http://www.colonialphotohobby.com/index.htm
Uh, yeah? I was there, remember? It was a tiny store. Why is this a problem for you? Do you have some form of pride invested into the size of this store? Why? What's it to you?
Size is a relative thing, especially if you judge by the size of B&H or similar.
Colonial was slightly bugger than B&H, but B&H was also very tiny.
B&H in NY? - or is there another branch I don't know about?Eric StevensHere is Camera & Camera, my preferred store in Auckland. This what they sell: https://www.camera-camera.com/And here is what they sell it in: http://tinyurl.com/ku9es8fPhysically they are not large but judging by what they do, they are quite a big store. At least they feel that way to me.Sandman
I'm not sure what I should do with this information.
It might help you give a reference point when people use words like, large, small, tiny, microscopic etc.
