I think you need to check your numbers dude, , the Miami / Dade area only has 1.7 million people and the whole state is only at 18 million , just looked those numbers up , cause I had no idea where there would be a metropolitan area with 6 million people , unless you count everybody south of Orlando , in Fla. Most people won"t travel more than a few miles to pick up anything now a days , it's too easy to buy it off the net . While I travel the Jacksonville area a lot , it's not uncommon for me to go 60 or 70 miles round trip , I just did that , looking for 1 kit at Hobby Lobby for a trade . I also hit the hobby shop in Ocala ( Rob's ) plug , plug , plug ,when I'm down that way for a club meeting , think FAST , Daytona is also an area I travel to and look around , it's cheap entertainment for me and the wife to get out a little . It is sad that the smaller hobby shops are fading , but after Wally World almost killed them , at least in this area , when they carried models all the time , there's still 1 that's fairly well stocked locallly ( Hobby World OP ) plug , plug , plug , have known the owners for over 40 years , great people , but things change and business goes on .
