The ink was hardly dry on the article in the local newspaper (http://www.planetlaundry.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5478) about my new laundry, and the owner of the competition (sort of) across town called and asked if I was still interested in buying his mat now that I was building new. He was willing to come off my original offer price, so we went for it. Now it looks like I'll close on our second store before construction is finished on the first one in the area!
Besides Craigslist and the Classifieds here, does anyone have a good way to get rid of any old equipment we pull out while rehabbing the place? Some of the equipment is seriously old (1962 era Huebsch propane single dryers) and some is relatively new (2006 era Whirlpool tops). I'm not entirely sure we'll do a major overhaul just yet, but I'm trying to figure out what to do with this stuff to try and re-capture some value if and when we do upgrade.
Not counting the 2 mats that are about to go out of business, I'm half-way to cornering the local laundry market! At the very least, I suddenly got rather busy in my quest for world domination...
