We tried it here in a city of 300,000 and hung on for almost 7 years,
1988-95, before we closed without going bankrupt, but I would say we
lost about a quarter million cdn.$. We carried high end merchandise as
well as collector dolls. The clubs were mostly interested in raw
materials, rather than finished product.

Absolutely no experience, but it might say something that in Los
Angeles, a city of almost 4 million, there are zero - nada - not any
dollhouse miniature shops, unless you count the gift shop in the
Angels Attic toy and dollhouse museum. There used to be a half-dozen
or so. There are still 5 or 6 in some nearby areas, but they're few
and far between. There are a number of NAME associated clubs, and they
go far afield on shopping expeditions.
