Sure you will..............I'll do it after I FIRE.
$72 in 1971 is worth $422 now. Not keeping up with inflation.I can still buy my buggy whips locally at the feed store, but I buy my stryptic pencils online.
On a lighter note, being sort of a pack rat, I still have my original AR turntable I bought in 1971 and the Panasonic I bought in the late 70's. Have you seen what those AR turntables are selling for on ebay? I paid $72 for it in 1971 and now they can go as high as $400 for a nice one.
The Mayfair Daily Journal, January 8, 1880:
That's fictional, but the point still applies: Just like light bulbs didn't spell the end of candles, automobiles didn't spell the end of stables, and airlines didn't spell the end of ocean liners, online shopping won't kill B&M stores: If the parallels prevail, then we'll see B&M retail morph into a novelty of some sort, an experience for which, perhaps, people will pay a premium.
I disagree. The last 2 hand guns I purchased I bought online and shipped to my local gun store simply because it has to go through them. What if in the future someone like a notary service can receive firearms purchased online and process the proper paperwork?
I also buy all my ammo online...way cheaper than B&M stores. The only benefit to a gun store is getting to feel the guns in your hand, how they feel, weight, trigger pull, etc etc. You can have one massive store kind of like a cabelas...although their gun inventory is pretty bust.
Interesting, when I moved back to my home town last June the movers would not take ammo I had to haul it myself.You can, its called your local ffl.
I bought a hand gun online, and they shipped it to my buddy, who is an ffl.
I drove to his house, we filled out the paperwork, I paid him $20 and took the gun home.
Once I bought ammo online, I asked they ship it to the store, but they said they couldn't and had to ship it to my place as a matter of safety.
About a week later when I got home there was a box of ammo sitting on the doorstep clearly marked as ammo for everyone walking by to see.
Now I buy ammo at the store.
And that is for a place where staff are almost surely not going to know the difference between LG and Insignia.Yes I imagine one day we will pay for a yearly admission pass so we can visit a B&M store to fondle the displays and pick something up and take it to the cash register where a human will take paper currency as payment !
Oh wait the future is here it's Costco & Sam's
