Can anyone explain how Fry's isn't on the east coast?

[Phokus]

I don't get this... at all. You'd think places like NYC and Boston would be a big market for them.

Imports on west coast?

 

[Leros]

Technology in general seems to be west coast oriented.

management.

screwegg.com (newegg.com) it's just a funny name someone else called 'em. neweggz takin' all their sales. tigerdirect.com, directron, mwave..

well, you got the big players and the big players who play it hard.

if you wanna do e-business, you need to go all out if you're willin' to xpand.

trust me, it's the people. people run companies, and if one company is doing well, good. if one company isn't, that's too darn bad. fact, run by people.

management.

amen.

I don't know, but I wish they would put a store out here. I recently moved to North Carolina from California and I totally miss Fry's!

I'm just saying a lot of tech companies are west coast based.

 

[bdude]

Damn, I was thinking exactly that a few days ago. Around midtown or maybe near Wall Street would be an excellent spot, but the prices of property around here might not make the investment worthwhile.

 

[aphex]

Uh, they are... kinda

I usually consider Atlanta to be an east coast city...

[bigrash]

I wish they had a Fry's in NYC. I've only been to a Fry's once close to LA and I didn't wanna leave.

Oh well, at least for now Microcenter will do

This doesn't seem to agree with what you are saying.

Because West Coast > East Coast. Just deal with it.

 

[nageov3t]

smaller profit margins, higher real estate costs?

Naw, its to compensate because you guys have to set your alarms to make sure you can get up and watch football.

The 3 brothers that started Fry's are originally from Sunnyvale, CA and they expanded from there.
