Does your LFS give you some % off of things?

[bbanks-bryant]

One of our LFS does not over a % discount on anything unless it's something special ordered for someone else and it didn't work for the person it was ordered for. However, they will usually come down on the posted price of items simply because we spend so much time, money & energy there AND often send referals to their store. On larger items that they have to order for us, they will make a small profit but don't set the price at retail.
Another LFS is hit or miss as to whether or not they will adjust price at all. We have dealt with them enough that they know we aren't going to buy from them unless the price is close to what we can order it for elsewhere.
Often a little knowledge of the items you are wanting to adjust prices on can help on that adjustment.

Their fish stock is unbelievable, and they do have a small coral frag section. That was nice, the store was nice, the staff were very nice too...
Aquahut just rocks.. Don is a great guy.
Don is the one with the ponytail? (I'm so bad with names...

)
He's my favorite... he's always smiling, super-sweet, and not trying to BS anyboby. But all of the staff there are great, too.
Anyway, you're right, AquaHut totally rocks. Luv them...

My only hope is that someone buys the place up here again and fixes what's now broken....
Hey M0nk what place is 5 minutes from your house?
