Pattisxm said: I am not sure if they sell retail, but they are located across the road from Chippie cafe in Philipsburg. I hadn't seen the Pattisxm post in an older thread, but she is right on. I made it my mission to find the Rima shop if it existed, and it does, right where Patti says, across the street from Chippie Café. Yes, they do retail. I bought three shirts for $30, those that I remember on Pondfill were three for $20. It's behind the big antenna towers of the building on Pondfill road. gary

Gary--I missed this post to begin with, I guess. Looks like some place I need to check out, for sure! I can't tell from the front of the store--how big is it, compared to the size of the old store??

jmbcomms said: That's a big change if they do retail...it's mainly wholesale. We got wholesale prices on Pondfill because we bought a lot. Mr 'Rima' and son always gave me a free hat on our first visit. Walked in to the new location and got prices higher than previous, but not sure if inflation or whatever. $10 for previous $7 shirts. Have you been there? gary

Honestly, their stuff is usually quite good. I'm wearing a Rima sundress now that I've had several years and has been washed many, many times and it is still in great shape. And back then, I know I was getting them for well under $10.

oceanview17 said: They must great shirts 3 for 30$ LOLs. I hope you don't get caught in the rain wearing one. They are wonderful shirts! I've been wearing one this evening (before reading TTOL) that I have had for over 10 years, and it is in great shape. For travel it gets stuffed in a packing cube (with the others) and shakes out and ready to wear. My 'pajamas' are a beachwear set from Rima that is nearly as old. My wife has lounging gowns eight to ten years old. Pretty sure that my mom now has several (as gifts). gary p.s. It would be nice if their prices were the same as back in the day, but I'm happy with $10.
