Yeah they didn't have any issues taking back some shoes I was having trouble with them de laminating. It's no MEC return policy though which often border lined on stupid.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

The one thing I ever tried to return to MEC was refused - it was a raincoat that started separating (the inside coating was shedding like snake skin). It was a MEC branded jacket too. They told me I didn't wash it often enough so too bad Ended up buying a new one from Atmosphere across the street haha.
Swimco is done.

Nobody going on beach vacations, nobody buying swimsuits. It's too bad because the wife really liked there stuff and that's where she bought most of the stuff for the family every winter when we go away. So far Covid has cancelled three vacations for us.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I'm amazed that it was around for 45 years and only selling bathing suits (I think) in a winter country like Canada
Sig nuked by mod.
When those bathing suits cost ~$60-150, they probably didn't need to sell a ton of them to stay afloat haha.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
So much this. Only time we ever went in there was before beach vacays. Sad cuz it was a Calgary based companyThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I’m sure a new version of this store will come in and replace if/when travel gets back to normal
I dont see the point of buying bathing suit locally when going to an exotic beach vacation. Most places you plan on wearing a bikini or bathing suit is likely going to sell them too. Pricing wont be cheaper at Swimco, so why not just buy at the vacation destination and consider it a souvenir?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
The more retailers folding, the bigger Amazon will get.

When I go on a beach vacation the first thing I like to do is go shopping. Save the beach and pool for day 2 or 3, what's the rush?

Unfortunate to see.
But I’ve never been able to justify $80+ on a bathing suit.
I usually grab one at winners before a vacation for $30
I'd rather not fly to Hawaii then have to go shopping to find a swim set before I can hit the beach.. Don't get me wrong, to I'll shop while there for me stuff, but I'd definitely still bring Beach attire for the first day or two.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
You guys have a shortage of shorts or something?

I assume people in Calgary have more winter coats and boots than swim trunks/bikinis.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

when you charter a yacht in the med, they give you swimwear gratis. #7.2
I despise shopping. When I go on vacation, I don’t particularly like to do activities I don’t enjoy.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Not like I buy new trunks every time either. Probably every 3 years or so.
Aren’t we supposed to support local anyways? or is that not cool any more?
Do you think that's a good thing?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
That is debatable. To me, this is the expected outcome. Retailers over charge for have expensive overhead, ie rent. While amazon spends money on improving customer experience and to the point it is more convenient than retail.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
In terms of distribution of wealth, this is definitely a bad thing. Bezos will take all the money make bill gates look poor lol.
