And you did it over and over again, in the face of people queryingEric StevensSandman
your usage.
No, I did it over and over again, without anyone querying my *usage*. Everyone thought I was in reference to B&H since well, that's what I was typing. No one was questioning my usage and not until I posted the address to a Best Buy Store did Savageduck realize I had had them mixed up the entire time.
Actually I knew you had it wrong, and posted a hint which you didn't recognize when this little exchange took place on April 16, 2014 when I found myself entering this thread for the first time:

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.Sandman
Eric Stevens: Here is their web site. It gives some idea of their size. http://www.colonialphotohobby.com/index.htm
Sandman: 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.
"bugger"???
"...B&H was also very tiny."???
None of that response makes any sense at all.
Now I know I didn't specifically spell it out then, but I thought you might have figured there was something wrong.
For the next three days you still did not recognize or acknowledge your error. It was only after you read my response to Eric on April 19, 2014 that you finally, to my relief understood what several of us had been trying to tell you.It's only endless because popinjay will not acknowledge what happened. I can't help feeling where we are back to the point where a permanent kill fill entry is the answer. --
That said, once you understood that there was a difference between B&H and probably all other camera stores in the USA there was no need to keep pounding away at this issue, and the time has come for Tony, Eric and you to close this endless debate.
