STATS


Sales Snapshot Retail ticket numbers played hopscotch in June compared to our last reported numbers (April). Low-dollar ($0-$200) and mid-dollar ($301-$400) tickets were down comparitively, but low-mid ($201-$300) and mid-high ($401-$500) tickets were up. Still, retailers indicated a just-about-even comparison between May and June. Richard Korber attributes his increase to the weather and innovative new products. “Our window tinting sales have skyrocketed due to 100-degree weather, and we’re also doing many 7-Color Halo headlight installations on muscle cars,” he said.
