Any reason for this or just a hunch? My local store seems to be doing ok from an outsiders point of view.

They made £2.4m last year I think - which is roughly £40k per store. That's not much of a margin until you're into losses territory and they probably don't have massive cash reserves to absorb a few years of poor trading.

Maybe not soon, but I reckon they're on a bit of a cliff edge. Being in the same sector where others are struggling is a bit ominous. Plus their service seems to have shifted to simply selling the LG with the highest margin rather than what the customer actually needs.
 
i've only used the richer sounds in brum twice but i've always had great advice and customer service. this imo is what sets them apart from the rest.

I doubt it. That's where middle class people with too much money who cba to do research go to buy overpriced products, that they can brag about to their friends over dinner.

He was joking. John Lewis is doing very well.

Overpriced products from somewhere that price matches :confused:
 
I'll just add that if any of the companies in question are publicly traded, especially on the 250 or above, just check their share price as an indication of performance. Market analysts do this for a living and have a large influence on the price of shares.
