Given current trends and the aggressiveness of online retailers, its clear to me that increasing value percentages of the goods that we buy will be delivered to our door and not from physical stores. So infrequently purchased items will be relatively harder to find at physical stores, and need-it-now items will be priced at a high markup in order to pay the rent and labor costs born by physical stores. Another trend affecting all retail is the recycling of used goods via craigslist, eBay, and so forth. When such an item is purchased used, then its very possible that a retail purchase was lost. Many people do not need to go to a physical store to learn about desirable goods, rather they observe what their friends have, maybe try it out, then buy online - with no physical store comparison or impulse shopping.
