Feedback needed - Building a Hobby Shop Database

[scottkoz20]

I am working on a form that will allow members to add in their favorite Hobby Shops. I have some structure established, but I would like to get some feedback from you all on what information you would like to see included


I have
Store Name/Location
Telephone
Website URL
eBay Store
Facebook Page (I need to add twitter)

Store Hours broken down by day

If they sell singles and/or host breaks.



What am I missing?



Thanks in advance,
Scott

Great idea!

I think you've got the bases covered pretty well. The only other thing I can think of adding is whether the hobby shop specializes in anything (e.g., trading cards, comics, vintage, modern, etc.).

I like that idea.

I could add it as a field to allow the user to free form some of this information

Maybe possibly the owner or manager of the store (if you know their name?).

good idea if people travel can find a shop if visit that area

My thoughts:
Breakers.tv channel link
Which nights they typically break (checkboxes)
Check boxes of product offered (I hate when I get to a store and they don't sell hockey, only Football and Baseball) including non-sports
Instagram (I don't use it, but I know many breakers/shops do to show off hits)
If they have a monthly pack war or trade day/night

I would love to have a map, but I think a list of states and Provinces would suffice

I love the products offered check boxes - great call

the breakers.tv link is something I would rather generalize to either Youtube/Breakers/Twitch or something along those lines.


I will get this built out and work on getting this opened up to you all to fill out.

I like all of the mentions of what products, singles/boxes/breaks etc, but I think a field such as "Best Known For" would be good. For example, using Buffalo as an example Dave & Adams obviously would be your go to place for boxes, but their singles are weak. On the other hand a place like Center Ice or Bases Loaded has a substantially larger singles selection. So maybe a "Best For" whatever product you'd definitely go there for.

I think this might be better served as a free form text field to allow the submitter to put this in. Additionally, I am looking to find a hack that will allow for comments / feedback to be provided about that shop.
