The world of shopping is changing dramatically because of the Internet, once upon a time it would take extensive research to locate a product other than in your local retailer. Now it's all a google search away, so this kind of thing is inevitable.
Retailers need to offer that extra service you cant download, be it scope/ camera servicing, exhibition nights/ training or even scope/ camera hire. If they want to survive they have to think outside the square. If they offer good enough service they will survive.
