I really wanted to emphasize my on air comment that it was when the economy was crashing down that the opportunity for ReRack emerged the old "When one door closes another one opens" adage couldn't be truer. If the economy had not tanked this business may have been much smaller than it is today, but with GI Joes going out of business a few months later, people needing money from stuff cluttering their closets, and people needing to make their money go farther the business of reusing Yakima and Thule roof racks has really taken off. If you can find a reuse niche, like the reuse ethos and the work involvled go for it, you will be find a market here in Portland. www.rerackpdx.com
