JB said:I am positive I mean positive that I was told I could not have a store on ATP and all plant stores on Cubits were to close.


I looked further into this. You had a lengthy exchange with Trish on July 8th, 2011. You approached her asking to shut down your Cubit because it wasn't a "home" for your type of gardening. In the initial mail that you sent, you said:

JB said:I am not really happy with the Cubits because there never seems to be a "home" for my type gardening.


Later in the same mail, you said:

JB said:I do not have time to care for a cubits and I am delighted to have you take over that for me. When you have a second, please take a look at my Cubit's, including the store and if you want me, you have my permission to move whatever you want to move to the new site. IMMEDIATELY. I will close the Cubit's store if you suggest because I do not see the traffic there being enough to make a big difference in sales.


Trish gave you some ideas, thoughts and encouragements. Ultimately, Trish told you:

Trish said:As for your cubit- it is completely up to you.


You replied:

JB said:I would guess since the garden traffic will no doubt be moving to the new site, leaving the store up on Cubits would be a waste of time and space....If it is not possible to move JBsPlants Cubits store to the new site, then close everything down immediately.


Trish replied:

Trish said:I honestly don't know what the future holds as far as stores on ATP.

There is no harm or wasted space to just keep your cute store right here.

It's your call, of course. I'm just saying that it won't hurt anything.

Give it some thought.


and 3 hours later you replied:

JB said:Please remove everything from Cubits. Thank you.


So she did.

I hope this helps jog your memory about the exchange. I can forward to you the entire back-and-forth if you would like it.
