This KB Toys stuff sounds like a developer scam. There are dead malls everywhere, not like those storefronts are going at a premium these days. If they can't float a KB in that climate, how are they going to be profitable as a monolithic detached B&M store front? |

I would supose the cut a deal with Amazon and most likely get top search results to boot.... Those mall stores are not as cheap as one might think, Last time I looked not only did they want 800.00/mo for a small arcade closet, but They wanted me to fix the leaky roof too.... Ya, not going to happen. |

Thanks for replying so I don't have to. I wouldn't want anyone else to actually research their crackpot theories before they post them or anything. ;) |
