Just gotta plug for this guy.

Sal didn't carry Aces.
I bought and tried some Thunders for 3 days, they sucked.
Sal took them back, acquired and traded them up for a set of 55's, and then started carrying Aces.
Shrewgy noticed he's got a new shop on the Ace radar.

No 58mm+ wheels other than soft cruiser wheels.
Showed him my Spitfire F1's
A week later they're in stock, 2 weeks their sold out.
Damon at Spitfire notices the bump in volume and variety.

Shitbird needs retail shelfspace to sell some more wheels.
I ferry some to Sal (along with some Rockin Rons), he sells two sets, gives one to his employees to try, and they are stoked (Dave, I'm hoping you've followed up on that?

Last week I let Sal know he should check out the Blackhart Pocket Pistols wheels, as he has no 60mm hard wheels for bowls. Tonight, he's got 4 different Pocket Pistols models in his case. Mind you, he's not even a Pocket Pistols shop (but I'm pressing...

He even slashed his prices to get MWWStone his Aces for $55 shipped to Canada after another shop failed to fulfill (truly inadvertant, 1 lost package, & no more stock).

Bay area folks, give this guy some business. He may charge a tad more than many online skate shops, but he is there to get you what you want and need, and think of how many times you've walked into the other two largest East Bay skate shops and ever saw anything new. Hell, 510 doesn't even want to TRY Aces, let alone order some for a Customer. Nothing but an NHS approved case of goods.

Ace, Pocket Pistols, Black Label, if you're watching, please give Sal a visit, he's got mostly the younger crowd in there, but there are a bunch of us older fogies around that could benefit from Sal's commitment to getting new goods, and exploring what else is out there based on recommendations. Show him your goods, let him know why the kids may want to ride your stuff, and let him know the pro's and fans from the older persuasion are here.

Oh, alright Goon, you're allowed to as well, but only if you sell him on Cruz Missile concaves...

Not bad work for an East Bay Kook. If I'm ever in the neighborhood...I'm there.
