Replying to What makes a good ski shop?

Looking to eventually open my own ski shop and want some input.
As an employee of a ski shop, I have a general idea of what sells, but I want to know from people outside of my city.
What brands do you wish your local shop sold, why do you keep going to the same shop, or maybe any horror stories you guys have of the local ski shop.

I really like the idea of selling smaller, local brands.

But let me know what you guys think, I'm open to ideas.

Also link your favorite shop's website so I can take a look. Thanks!
