anyone hear these same rumors about BPS possibly putting a site here in the Phx metro? I heard that they possibly may have purchased land somewhere over by the 101 and 202 interchange.
Well I decided I would call and see what BPS had to say, I have called and ask this previous and I would get "none in Phx but they are putting one in Vegas". Well this time I got the answer "well sir I cannot confirm or deny that rumor". Well is it true? are we gonna have another underpriced superstore here like the Sportmans warehouse? I wonder what they are gonna sell out front? Del what you think lol :lol:

They already bought 2 parcels of property. 1 in tempe and 1 in north west valley. after market research they are selling the one in tempe. They are planning on breaking ground soon. Cabelas is also looking for property in the valley!

wow is there really that big of a market for fishing out here?

 

[Spidey]

Big market in AZ?? They are preying on fishing addicts.. Do you know anybody that will spend 25,100 bucks, or more a week to purchase stuff for fishing? Wondering why they don't take over any Super K-mart stores, or one of the many empty stores in the valley.

 

[jasonR]

True, Im guilty as well.....nothing like dropping 230 bucks and coming out with a rod and a small brown bag with only a few items in it!

From what i understand the BPS will be a distribution center with a retail store.

I really dont think AZ will be the right market for BPS. while there are alot of us that do fish and hunt most of this state anymore is Ca. most of which is anti hunting anti fishing and pretty much anti everything else . I guess if BPS sells golf clubs they might do ok.

Back east is a more outdoors type place.

Del, that's too funny! You sound just like Rob! All those CA "people" are causing problems. Tell them to go home. And a few other choice comments here and there. LOL :lol:

I emailed them about four months ago, and got a response saying that they were considering it. Doesnt it seem that the number of bps has doubled in the past few years? It looks like they are growing a lot faster than Cabellas.
