One other thiung to consider, if this wasn’t addressed earlier: If the model was a kit that he doesn’t carry, or cannot get because his distributor can’t get it, then I can understand why it was refused. After all, if he displays it and alot of people want to buy a kit of the same model, but he can’t get it, then word will spread and sales may go down. If however, the same kit is for sale on his shelf, and he has the space to display your finished model, then he has potentially cost himself a few sales. The second scenario would make me think he was wrong to refuse, but as others have said, it is his shop to do with as he wants. I agree, we all here would love to see and admire your work.
I have had the offer to bring in anything I want to dislay at my LHS and took him up on it, he does not have much space at all, but manages to maintain a display area at the counter.
thanks Duke…wise words…what i was wanting to display, the LHS does not carry and probably could not get as he/she can’t even get decal sol or set…

i know hobby shoppes have to be run as a business to be successful and therein lies the paradox as the commraderie…for me at least…is synonamous with their level of success…& soon as i’ve scanned in some pics, i’d love to share stuff with y’all…[:I]
