Exactly. It's unfortunate here that it often seems there's no real competition because there's only some amount of cross-over in the stock that the retailers sell. Often when I want something I can only find one place that sells it, and frequently it's a particular retailer that I hate dealing with because of their attitude. One recent case I couldn't even buy it from overseas (without using a freight forwarder which doubled the cost of the item) because I couldn't find anywhere that shipped to Australia.
As pointed out by numerous people above, it's not always the retailer, which is sad. Some of them are doing the best they can but that's still not good enough.
