What aspect of your store are you most proud? It's diversity and breadth.

What do you do that is innovative within your store? The mix of so many different products.

What has been your best in-store promotion? Just sticking to basics. Having something for anyone that comes in and giving the best customer service possible.

What has been your best out-of-store or cross-promotion? We are in a busy downtown area and we just try to present the nicest store possible for those that stop in.

What recent changes have you made to your store? We've added board games and novels.

How did you choose your store name? It was originally started by Mike Richardson of Dark Horse and that was the name he had chosen and I stuck with it once I purchased the store.
