Their market is consolidated on statitics, all of the people I know who 
ever bought some stuff,  longer big or small when NCIX was not here yet, 
live in the suburbs or not close to the downtown area and have no desire 
to go to downtown and shop of the spadina area shops.

I personally do not shop at the spadina area because the few bucks I 
would save with them most likely would get spent on parking/gas plus the 
hassle to deal with traffic, the people I know who have been customers 
of NCIX are okay with coming to these locations, no only because of 
their own location, but because their B.C. shops now also apply the same 
taxes that Ontario does, so shopping online with them is not optimal 
anymore and their free shipping does not make much sense if they can get 
it now here.

just my 2 cents
