Why haven't they gone broke?


Not to beat this to death, or Fiddler, but in the mid '80s I was traveling through Nebraska and stopped at the Cabelas in Kearney and Sidney. I think at the time these were their only retail outlets. Perusing through their archery department I notice a large section of bows, possibly 100, all left handed and above them was a sign "All LH bows $50 each". According to the clerk they tried to carry a good selection of LH bows but found they just didn't sell fast enough to justify the overhead, so they were only going to stock a very few of the most popular models in common sizes in LH and special order the rest. I went home with a trunk full for family and coworkers.
