    Over the course of the winter, cabin fever struck hard. I was going crazy, and driving my wife insane as well. Finally, she said, "why don't you do that thing you've been talking about for so long. " So I said "OK". So here it is. My intent is to make the website as comprehensive as possible in regards to merchandise for prop builders. Though I may have only a single line of certain things right now, I plan on expanding constantly. Essentially, I'd like to become the amazon.com of prop building supplies. I'm trying to keep prices as low as possible. Some items I barely break even on just to remain competitive. The wiper motors are pricier than other places, but those other places also charge handling fees or have minimum order amounts (look out for these charges no matter where you shop) while I do not, so in the end the prices balance out.
    Oh, and I want to apologize in advance to any other forum members who run stores (Frighteners, are you reading this?) regarding products I carry that they may carry. I don't mean to compete, but some of my products may be carried by others. I guess its inevitable in retail.
    Hope you enjoy Monster Guts.

    Good for the whole economy too. Buyers benefit from competition with lower prices thus them buying more, prompting manufacturers to make more, which means their employees remain employed. Those employees now have money to buy goods. And the cycle is complete. The whole commerce system thrives. So really, it helps everybody. We all win. I'll lay off the Economics 101 chant now.
