I believe jjp in Lakewood was in an economic Enterprise zone that allows for several tax breaks..could be wrong, but doesn't seem entirely related to cost.
Sad to see, I always liked visiting the factory and getting my games there. Feel bad for the staff, they were always nice.
The factory in Lakewood is pretty far from the nearest airport, I'd guess at least an hour. Maybe they just have more synergies being in one place and closer to major transportation.
Quoted from playernumber4:Maybe the time on the tax breaks expired.
Possibly, don’t know the laws of the economic zone. I will say it’s not a real convenient area.
Quoted from JohnnyPinball007:IL is a lot better than NJ any day of the week. I have stated before from my travels how IL has less tolls, less bs like pumping your own gas...not happening in NJ, roads you can not understand...a lot of roads in NJ you can not just make a left, you have to go right to make a left..so damn confusing.
Chicago pizza...best pizza I have ever had.
And the people in IL are a lot more friendly than the people in NJ in my opinion.
I am happy right where I am at. But if I had to move, and a choice between NJ and IL, NJ would never even have a second of my thought process. IL is a hell of a lot better than NJ.
Next time you head to nj, please let me know, I’ll show you the best of it, we won’t hit a single toll road and you won’t want to leave. Plenty to hate about nj (I have a long list) and it can give a bad first impression, but it can be a great place. Chicago pizza is very good, but good New York style in NJ is tough to beat.
Quoted from Bublehead:I’ll say this about NJ, I love to visit, enjoy staying there and have spent many a great vacation in Cape May and surrounding areas. Red Bank is a fun little town, got a picture of me hanging out in front of the Quick Stop in Leonardo. Jersey is a great place to visit, I would buy a nice beach house in Cape May, but then only spend my summers there. Not knocking NJ winter BUT...
Better to go to Delaware beaches actually. Same beach, no beach fees, no sales tax, much cheaper. We go to Dewey every year.
