You've got to be kidding...
"Posters shouldn't be MISLEAD into believing that the number of stores at Costco or Home Depot, is going to make a Difference, as Bigbizz tries to represent..."
ever heard of the parkinglot system.
say the above represents 4500 stores combined, 8 cam system is $18k and with bulk discount say 16K x 4500 stores = $72,000,000 now divide that by 2 (just for fun) $36,000,000 revenue from 3 companies.
so obviously the number of stores matters.
The above is merely an illustration that how store means a lot.
JMHO
