When I have suggested employing buyer in a tackle shop? And the other comment, well we could apply that to all walks of life couldn't we? In a fishing context you will have a good casting coach and a bad casting coach, a good rod builder and bad rod builder - buying is no different to be fair? Never use buzzwords or fancy systems its all common sense to be honest. I can't afford fishing lessons so I use these forums and friends I have made through it to help me try and get better. I'm only putting a viewpoint across and not everyone will agree and I wouldn't expect them to TBH.

To be fair, the original post didn't mention the shop at all, terry came on and explained the situation as a decent honest bloke and fair play to him. For me that only enhances his reputation as being a good shop as opposed to anything else.

Elastic? About a quid a spool Gordon haha. I also have two, when one runs out I buy another! Minor stock error, not really worth all this aggravation lol

In an ideal world your theory would work however we dont live in an ideal world and trends change.
Unfortunately my crystal ball must run out of batteries, but that would be my fault as i have no doubt you will tell me i should have known it would need batteries.
Mark please dont take offence at my reply to you quote, just trying to get a point over thats all.

you should have planned better and realised the batteries would run out
All in all, fair play for coming on to explain when you didn't have too terry as you weren't brought into it by the original post. Rep of the shop is well intact mate. Issue closed.
You two organised buggers lol I have had to use my carp line i use for rotten bottoms on more than one occasion to lash my crab on when I lose my elastic, not once in the god knows how many spools I have bought have I seen the end roll lol
Fair enough lads you all entitled to come back as you have done. Not sure i agree bait elastic is subject to trends mind you or any need for a crystal ball? Lets just call the debate a draw. I'm working with a company next week probs will call deal off as clearly it appears I'm talking out my arse! 5% reduction in costs will typically mean 25% more profit which business person wouldn't want that?
You will be pleased I will just be a viewer on forum going forward after this beautiful experience!

Listen just said in previous post to leave it at that and people twisting my posts. 500 spools was used as a figure used as an example what you say can be true and can be wrong in different situations and im not prepared to drag this on any further so people say what they want to be frank. People on here seem to have everything in hand so just leave it at that you's have me beat feel better now? i know where my expertise is - I'm out!
