Default RE: Gander Mt in Trouble?

I have often wondered how long retailers like Cabela's will remain profitable also. They seem to be getting richer since they are opening more and more stores throughout the country, but I think the novelty of these stores may start wearing off soon and then reality might start setting in. With fewer and fewer participating in sports like hunting and fishing, I just can't see their success lasting forever. It was one thing when they were mail-order only, not as much overhead goes into that, but running the retail stores can be costly. At the same time their prices are getting quite high. I do like Cabela's a great deal and they surely have the greatest customer service in the world, but I hope they aren't biting off more than they could chew with all these new stores and the tremendous volume of glossy catalogs they keep sending people that has got to cost them a fortune also!
