I am going to be needing to start getting some retail display cases together soon.
What I was hoping is I could get a few of you gents to keep an eye out in your travels for some store closings or other such happenings that I would be able to score a few cases from at a buy it now or regret it price etc..
The wife and I are slowly moving towards opening a shop and there are a string of events taking place that "May" increase the chances of that.
So if you know any your help would be greatly appreciated.

I will definitely keep an eye out for you.  The local shop that I help out, Acme Sports, just recently moved into a new building and I know they had some contact information of some places getting rid of display cases.

If there are any available from these contacts after they are settled in I will let you know.

I wish you and the wife the best of luck if you end up taking the business venture.

There is/was a place on the west side (Capitol Ave ?) called Indianapolis Store Fixtures inc.  I bought a few things from them a few years back and IIRC, they had tons of those glass cases in there for not much money.

Uh, Was that the place on Oak Street?  I heard a rumor they were moving but was never able to confirm it. Feel free to send me an e-mail, I would like to visit their new shop.

Sorry, my error.  I actually think they are on South Poplar in Seymour unless their move is complete. Good folks.

The move is complete.  They are now located on the South side of Tipton Street (Highway 50) right across from the State police post.

If anyone plans to make a trip down send me an IM before you do so I know to expect ya.

Damn, I wish you had posted this a month ago.  The K's Merchandise in Ft. Wayne was having a store closing. (I think the company as a whole may be closing too) Shelves, display cases, fixtures, EVERTHING GOES!  They had ones from their pistols cases and several jewelery cases that would have been perfect.  I think they are now closed closed now though.

Month late dollar short.
I think the unfortunate reality is that stores close all the time, eventually I will find the stuff I need I just figure I would increase my chances by having a few other eyes out there.
