Coulda seen that coming. Half the stuff in it was waaaay overpriced and the other half was just flat weird...and overpriced.That's really a shame because they were essentially a monopoly that had an audience with an undivided attention. If I'm allowed to jump on the bandwagon, they were poorly managed.Jump on and ride! I have only looked at the catalogs on flights sometimes seeing some interesting things but never buying. Know nothing more about them except they have been around a long time.Howdy, Dave. I got the impression they only sold things for people far richer than I. Yet most of the folks looking at the catalog are sitting in coach. Missed opportunity.
