I agree. I went to Obie's once and couldn't leave fast enough. I'm not claustrophobic but felt like it in the store. Mostly my reason for leaving was logical - I couldn't see how to get a fabric bolt out of a pile without it all coming down on top of me. No fun to be in a fabric store when you can't buy anything.
