There is a store near me that I have passed by a handful of times but never went in.  I looked up their website and found out it is a franchise with 7 stores.  The two near me were the first and second.  Interesting story in the About Us page on how it all started.

 

Since they are scattered around the US, has anyone been to a store?

 

I'm curious what they offer on bulk.

The owner of the franchise is a member here don't think he logs on much though.

Last time I recall hearing from him was when 'Goldgate' transpired.

Sorry I didn't answer the question but yes I have been in the one in Albuquerque and even corresponded with the franchise owner about opening a store before he was a member here.

I must have missed this ... refresher?

Great store, good people.  They always have a good inventory of new and old stuff.  Some is opened and some sealed.  I have been able to pick up a few sets for my city MOC that myself and the kids are doing.  I expect they follow BP values for set pricing as they seem to be very close to it.

Goldgate was the nickname people came up with what happened by the search for Mr. Gold. The incredibly high value, the tearing open of bags in store, and so on. The topic about predicting Mr. Gold's worth was the last time I remember seeing the Bricks & Minifigs member post anything.

Oh OK, I thought you meant there was some Mr. Gold schenanigans with B&MF labeled GoldGate ha.

I went through the Mr. Gold thread, and found the Bricks & Minifigs guy. His username is "Bricks", and he's been a member for quite a while... over 2 years.

Cool. Thanks for the info.
