How is he fulfilling a market niche that has been neglected when he is opening the same time East End is? He actually closes 1 hour before they do. He closes on Monday as well. So if he was trying to market to a neglected niche then why would he close on Mondays and why wouldn't he stay open later? ...

I agree 100% that this topic has spun off in many directions. Some good and some bad, but to say that I better sit out and watch who goes in and out is a little absurd, don't you think? A comment like that tells me that you need to go back to page ONE and reread all of the initial posts. My opinions...

I call it a "new business" because I feel that it is appropriate. If you choose to call it by its name, so be it. You are seriously missing my point. Again, it has never been about anything other than the manner in which he went about opening his store. I posted the letter hoping to engage...

Just wanted to respond to the comment about the quality of East End Hoagies. This is one of the biggest reasons the family has been so successful after 51 years; same ingredients, same vendors, same products and same employees( love em' or hate em'). Here are the facts. East End has always had an 8 ...

Hey, Joker...did Sheetz create/invent gasoline? Aren't you missing the point? So what will the name of your station be? I heard you can pick up some good business etiquette from a "new business" in town. Maybe they can give you some pointers on how to set up your station to replicate Sheet...

I was reading over the discussion and still find it hard to believe that people from Tyrone would support a THIEF. But as a few of you keep reminding me, it is freedom of choice. I was well aware that I would be opening a can of worms by starting this discussion, however the facts remain the same. L...

Yes. I guess everyone does not understand the point of my concern. Let me try to make this a bit more clear. This "new business" has COPIED the East End Recipe. This new business did not market a NEW idea. The owner wants to ride the coat tails of East End. You see, I see it like this. Ste...

I agree with providing choices to consumers. What I don't agree with is duplicating the EXACT 3 products, including the EXACT ingredients, using the EXACT vendors/suppliers and calling your hoagies by the EXACT name. To me, it boils down to morals and ethics. The location is just icing on the cake. ...

Not sure what hours this "new business" will maintain. I know that patrons get so frustrated with the minimal hours that East End is open, however the demand is usually greater than the supply each week, so I can finally understand after all these years why the decision was made to be clos...

I want to send the following letter to the Herald and Mirror. I am new to your forum and hope that no one is offended by my personal opinion. I chose my words very carefully and put a lot of thought into this entire matter. Well, you can read how I feel... Around this time last year, you may have se...
