RIP Saddle Shop

I just hopped on to the site of my go to tack shop (Libertyville Saddle Shop) and saw that they're closing their doors after 50 years of business :( I'll be shopping the liquidation sale, so I guess that's a silver lining of sorts. Very sad to see the place go.

I am from WI and shopped the libertyville saddle shop for years, while back home in Wisconsin for a visit I stopped in at the "liquidation sale" 2 weeks ago and was not too pleased, the discounts were not that deep. A lot of western wear and crappy saddles made in Argentina.....

Wow, Libertyville Saddle Shop...that sure takes me back a half-century-plus! Guess I was there before the present retiring owners, when it was a building in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by fields (and the biggest thing in the region was Hawthorn Melody Farms), for gear, and I'm sure it was pre-1960. Didn't realize they had become such a big online retailer! Too bad, but...All Things Must Pass...

Bummer. I know I'd be pretty cheesed if my local tack shop closed up. I get a bunch of stuff from Dover, but y'know, I really want to be able to check the fit of a pair of breeches before I buy them.
