We have a local shop that just sells door knobs, latches, hinges and letter plates for doors, but doesn’t sell actual doors.
The local struggling mall (that I still refer to as “the new mall”) had a Flag Store open recently. Flags, poles, and flag related accessories. It closed down a few months after it opened.
There’s also an Eyebrow Threading Place. One woman and one chair in an otherwise empty store. I actually stopped and stared, waiting for a punchline. I did not get my eyebrows threaded, nor do I know what that means. The signage was an 8x10 piece of paper taped to the window that proclaimed, “Eyebrow Threading”.
I went to a store in Covington, KY that specialized in Scottish Terrier collectables.
3 months later, they shut down and sold their stock, business, etc to a person who lived 2 miles from my home in Atlanta, GA.
Year ago, the local mall had the Tie Shop, but it went under as people stopped wearing them.
There also was a store in downtown Schenectady that sold only coffee. Not as a beverage, but ground coffee and beans. It was near the Planters Peanuts store that sold only peanuts. Both went out of business years ago.
Fuse World, although I see it is now called Fuses Unlimited.

Here in Portland, we have Ingrid, The Rune Woman. I have no idea what she sells; woo, probably. There’s also an ionized water store in my neighborhood, where you can get a foot bath treatment. And there are the ubiquitous crystal stores. A new place just popped up down the street called “The Sacred Well”. Haven’t been in there, but according to their website:
:rolleyes:
There was a store I visited some years ago in an Atlanta mall (the underground one?) which apparently only sold kites.

-Today I saw a store called the “Bird Seed Depot” selling nothing but seed and bird houses.

A place called Wild Birds Unlimited must be at least modestly successful, as it has franchise outlets. They sell bird seed, suet, birdhouses, feeders, birdbaths and such.
Upcountry in Thailand, there were at least two shops that sold birds and accessories on one hand and bathroom plumbing fixtures such as tubs and toilets on the other.
It’s a hair removal technique.
Plastic Bagmart, Marietta, GA.
I forgot: there’s a store here in Tucson that sells maps and flags. Apparently it’s thriving, because it’s been here for at least 35 years that I can remember.
I remember going to The Purple Store.
Yes, all they sell is purple items.
Wanna guess what they sell?
Alright, you. Out of the pool.
There is a small store I drive past frequently called TRI Con Bolt Company. No link as they have no website. It has been there at least 25 years. It is all alone on a nice piece of property with a lake on one side and the only major road around on the other. It is a legitimate business. The one time I went in, the guy there said “What can I do for you?”
I got very happy and said “I need some bolts.”
On one of Casey Neistat’s YouTube videos there was apparently a store in New York not too far from his Studio that sold just shoelaces.

We have a battery store near me, too, but they’re not limited to just batteries. They also sell cornhole boards.
What, not in Flagstaff?
Speedometer repair shop. (WTF? Wouldn’t it be cheaper to buy a new one?)
And another shop that just sells LEDs.
This one just came across my FB feed.
Twisted Ranch. A restaurant where everything is made with Ranch dressing. 27 flavors of Ranch dressing…
