[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 403924, member: 13556"] This last year, a BB I visited while traveling added a pro photographer to their sales staff, and that was light years ahead of what I usually experience at BB. However they were really discouraged by the hours and their clientelle. I was discouraged by their lack of in-depth knowledge of some specific equipment they stocked; in fact they were just plain misinforming some people on some issues. I'll believe BB is in the game when I see lots of trained photography sales people, as well as enhanced stock of not only cameras and lenses, but also photo accessories. They'll have a long way to go to meet the level of service of a specialty camera/photography store. If they can get most of the way there, though, it will be great, especially for those who rarely get to step into a retail photography business. I do wish them great success in this, although my biggest fear is that they'll drive some shops out of business and then abandon this operation later. WM [/QUOTE]
