Wargaming... stores...? You guys over the pond are soooooooo spoilt! GZG
minis etc, in fact all the minis I have ever been interested in are only
available by mail order here in the UK.
I've always had a yearn to run a proper wargames shop, with lines from
lots
of manufacturers, but since I don't have the capital I'll have to stick
to
shows and mail order.
There are a few wargames stores (other than GW, which I think we all
agree
doesn't count) in the country, such as Keep Wargaming... but never
anywhere
near where I live!
