The worst aspect of 7 Cowper is inadequate parking. It is really easy to damage one's car. There is nothing which the owner can do about it due to the physical location of the shop. In fact, irrespective of price, I will not want to go to this shop as it costs much more to fix a car's damage (besides, it makes it difficult to explain to wife or girl friend as to why my car was parked in that part of Sydney).

I once walked inside the shop a few years ago and immediately walked out. The interior decoration was very poor then. I do not know if they have since renovated the shop.

I was a bit surprised to learn from a brother that 7 Cowper is owned by 45 George (Roger), as the two shops are very close. Are they trying to compete for the same customers? I learnt from Lala that she worked in both 45 George and 7 Cowper on different days. Perhaps this suggestion is true.

The question then is 45 George is using a good system to gain business, but then why 7 Cowper is trying to use a system which a lot of brothers are questioning as "quite stupid"? This is a mystery and will continue to generate lots of discussion.

If I were the owner of 7 Cowper, I would immediately delete this thread so as not to damage the shop's reputation further and hope this mistake will die down and nobody can remember this any more.
