WILD_O_S Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Hey CC's, Not sure if you heard yet but Wildernest Outdoor Store is opening another shop down on Bainbridge Island. We are maxing out our Port Townsend shop and had an opportunity to take over the old Classic Cycle shop on Winslow Way. Do you know of anyone that might be interested in working with us and helping develop a shop dedicated to total gear dominance on this side of the water? I also don't pretend to know everything about everything so I'm hoping the community might have some fresh ideas/feedback on what you want in a outdoor store/gear shop. Obviously, FF does it right but what's missing? We're hoping to have it up and running later this summer. Please pass along my email to anyone you suspect might be interested - Steve@wildernestoutdoorstore.com Peace, Steve Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Do you know of anyone that might be interested in working with us and helping develop a shop dedicated to total gear dominance on this side of the water? ummm, sounds a bit aggro and un-community oriented to me. maybe work with the NO FEAR theme? you know, TOTAL GEAR DOMINANCE on the pristine and harmonious olympic peninsula.

Sherri Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Is anyone else already selling(climbing)gear on this side of the water??? Hang a carabiner on your display rack and you will have achieved dominance. Quote
WILD_O_S Posted July 13, 2008 Author Posted July 13, 2008 Do you know of anyone that might be interested in working with us and helping develop a shop dedicated to total gear dominance on this side of the water? Yeah, this was meant more as a Tongue-in-cheek crack on the lack of climbing equipment to be found on the peninsula. First Mt Constance closed, then Olympic Mountaineering closed, so we really had no choice but to add a meager selection of climbing gear to our shop. The community came to me with a need and I have tried to fill it as best I can. Besides, having a full size run of camalots and nuts give the display case the credibility it lack's otherwise...it's next to a wall of Crocs;) Steve Quote
sexual_chocolate Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 jeez, someone got their panties in a bunch? good luck with your business venture! Quote
WILD_O_S Posted July 14, 2008 Author Posted July 14, 2008 I don't think it's possible to bunch the new Ibex merino thong is it...ouch! Thanks for your well wishes. Quote
Figger_Eight Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Right on Steve - I'll stop by next time I'm in the neighborhood. Congrats on the move south! Quote
olyclimber Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 you guys should open a shop in PA (ok or sequim if you want to sell to the old folks) to fill the void there! unless those guys who had the shop there are going to get off the couch. Quote
