Someone said that they recently saw a Rima store on island, like on Back Street. Does anyone know if they sell retail at all? I would like to buy some more of their stuff, but I don't like the things they sell on the website. Or does anyone know whether the gals in that square down from the courthouse sell other Rima stuff? Or something similar? I'm looking for sun dresses made out of polyester with a regular neckline (not the spaghetti strap ones). I just don't do shopping anymore, so it's been a really long time since I've been downtown, other than going to the Rima big store, before it closed.

OK, thanks. I will check out Maho first to see if they have what I want. As I said, the stuff online is NOT what I'm looking for.

OK, thanks. Maybe they were mistaken. I did buy one thing from a lady at Mullet, but it wasn't really what I wanted.

OK, at least it is much closer than going into P'burg. We usually end up going to Maho Market a couple of times for a bottle of wine, etc., so it's not a special trip.

Yes, I bought something on Mullet this last time, but it was not anything I was very excited with.

Well, yeah, but the prices in the retail store were much lower than what is shown on the website.. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Mad.gif" alt="" />

It really depends I guess. I'm not at all interested in a massage, so if that lady comes by, I tell her that I'm not interested in a massage, but I WOULD be interested in either the jewelry or clothing. That really seems to work. The jewelry or clothing ladies come by and the massage ladies seem to just smile and pass by. And once I have purchased something, I can tell the other ladies that I have made my purchase and they just smile and move on. That has worked for me at Mullet several times. When I say that, I do feel an obligation to purchase something from the clothing or jewelry lady, but that is usually not real hard.

I would say that's true, based on what the retail prices used to be in the store. I paid probably 300% of what I could have bought the same thing at the store for.

I was pretty sure I saw a sign when in town one day. I emailed Rima from their website and below is the response I received.
Hello!
Thanks for writing to us! At this time, we have a wholesale outlet located in Philipsburg. We also have an authorized Rima retail outlet located on Old Street in Philipsburg as well. It goes by the name of Kenny’s Duty Free Store. Best Regards,

Had I not recalled seeing a sign somewhere in town I probably would not have emailed but I was sure I saw one.
