Closing our store and retiring !

[Nord]

After almost 24 years we are retiring !! Well I'm not retiring but my parents are. Perfect opportunity. We have no lease because it's Romeo renew, business is great, stagecoach push is going on and we have great inventory nothing stale.
So why is the question that everyone asks. I want my parents to retire. We put our hearts, blood, sweat and tears into the store for a long time. It's a life sucker to say the least. I'm 38, single, never married no kids. I had no life outside the store. If I hang on to it, my parents will be drug through the mud. We don't want to sell because nobody will run it like we do. We are all excited. I took a sales rep job in rapid prototyping in Januarry to set this up.
The mall is under construction and I'm sure rent will at least double not letting us to be as competitive as we have always been.
Anyhow everything is marked down including rainbows. You are in the know. Stop by and get some cowboy boots, workboots, cowboy hats, wrangler apparel etc. go get some shit!

Thanks!

We will also be inventorying top sellers through the end.

Congrats Nord. I always admired what you and the family did. Awesome family run business. Do you still have the red eliminator eagle?

 

[brgrcru]

Congrats and condolences at the same time. Not easy owning a business, it will be harder to go work for someone.
I almost made the same move a few months back and decided at least 5 more years. i like to work and spend money. just not ready to watch every cent yet.
good luck with your new life.

DITTO?

 

[OutCole'd]

Great news and best of luck to you guys, this is a huge move!!

 

[Nord]

To answer everyone's questions. Most people who ask for 15's in cowboy boots swim In a size 15 because of the conversion. We have up to a 14EE. I would be shocked if you don't fit in a 14D or 13EE. Go the store tomorrow if you can or this week. We can still order stuff as well. We did all of the announcements yesterday and today. All work it's are marked down. Brighton for your wife. Miss Me jeans. The whole shebang. All current stuff.

 

[VoodooMedMan]

Congrats.

And I may have to get down there. Love me some boots.

 

[Waffles]

Wait.... This was YOUR store? Idk how many times I've been in there to buy stuff lol. I even bought my daughters first cowgirl boots there because you guys were the only ones that carried a hard sole boot that small. (pink with fringe in a 4c)

Thank you everyone for the positive posts. I'm excited for my parents and I am excited about the new industry I'm in.

Best to you Nord, you know where we live if you need anything? Tom

Thank you sir. I really appreciate it.

Depends on how much inventory we move. My guess is end of May.

Ran out to get some drive oil at lunch and came back with a pair of boots.

I cannot say enough about the level of service from the employees. The two women working today were well informed, polite and exceedingly patient with me. Sorry to see places like this go but glad I could get the product and service I was looking for.

On another note, West Marine on Tustin is closing the store as well. They will be discounting inventory through mid-June.

Thanks Nord and best wishes to you, your family and your employees.:thumbsup
