bigals_brodie Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Big Als Calgary is having a closing down sale. For the past two years we have been locked in a legal dispute involving our property manager over our lease, we lost the case. Two years of very high legal bills have forced the owners to shut the doors forever. Big Als would like to thank all of the customers that have supported us over the years. The close out sale is effective today Feb 28 2005. Everything is being liquidated including store fixtures, and equipment. If anyone has any questions feel free to drop by the store. Thank You Brodie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vapor Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Even though everyone, including me complained about them from time to time it is too bad to be losing another LFS. -01- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGr8Blade Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Sorry to hear that. Feel bad for the guys and gals that work down there. Why not just move to another location? Maybe they will do that later on. Chums and now Big Als...hopefully no more. Thanks for letting us know. What day do the doors actually close FOREVER?

RD. Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 It appears that there's already a location picked out for a new BA's in Calgary North, at least according to this: http://www.bigalscanada.com/images/franchi...ritoriesweb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Prawn Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Yeah I'm going to go tomorrow morning first thing and buy everything in the store, so you all can buy it from me for 5% more ;-) Is now a good time to tell everyone about my new store opening up for 1 week only, Hideo Aquatics? -Hideo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank You Brodie I do not sympathize with them. This is probably the consequence of their poor business practice. Good luck with the liqudation ... P.S. Perhaps, you can answer potential questions here, rather than asking people to come to your door for that purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAlberta Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Ho Humm Most prices have been marked down 25% (such as fish). We bought some stuff but there is still quite a bit left A few things are marked down to 50% (such as backgrounds). I suppose we are spoiled with buying up so much of Chum's stuff and Riverfront's two for one sales There is lots left for the bargain finder Dave Big Als Calgary is having a closing down sale.For the past two years we have been locked in a legal dispute involving our property manager over our lease, we lost the case.

Moogled Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 How about tank stands and SW live rock? When is the sale until? BTW Milan, most people don't say "if you have any questions feel free to drop by the store, phone us, e-mail us, and maybe even post on AlbertAquatica so we can answer your questions."

dunl Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Most people don't join Alberta Aquatica to see if they can make a few extra dollars by selling off their remaining stock because they are closing. Chums closed and they STILL come back and say hello to the members here, instead of joining and making ONE post to see if they can make more profit. Good riddance.
