As a matter of fact, yes.  Creative Computers, of Santa Monica, CA., is
a mail order store like Abel, Mountain, etc. etc. (although CC advertises
in the mags while the other two mentioned don't although others not 
mentioned do) and also a storefront retail shop in the above named
city who does a booming business (I have never been in his store when
it was NOT absolutely crowded except right after he opened in Aug '87),
and he had the ONLY major-software-retailer booth on the floor of 
AmiExpo in LA, an extremely enviable position! (He also bought the back
cover of the AmiExpo handout program for his ad). He's also, to the
best of my knowledge, the ONLY retailer in all of So.Calif who deals
ONLY in Amiga-related goods: no Mac, PC, 64/128, or any other brand of
'puters and software in the store. 

Nah, I'm not on his payroll, but he IS a mail order outfit and he WAS
selling at a computer show.
