hmm, when I think of the money you claim you're losing... why do you leave? Wouldn't it be smarter to just go non-exclusive? You could easily make up the money by selling the same product at other stores. oh well... I expect the same thing to happen this year as last... a small minority of vendors screaming how they are leaving in righteous indignation, only to see the majority of them crawling back to sell here some months later. g
