    Or, OR, retail doesn’t understand that it’s all a convenience purchase at this point, which means they have to have inventory if they want money. I swear to god, every time i go to a store they never have what i want in stock, so i get my phone out and order it online while standing there angry.

      we went to walmart awhile back to pick something up that was in stock in our store.

      the asshole behind the electronics counter said “we don’t have that in stock”. didn’t even look. didn’t want to check his handheld after we showed him what the web site said.

      we stood right there and ordered it online… for delivery from the store.

      we finished up there, swung through arbys drive through, then filled-up the car.

      and we barely beat the delivery guy from the store home.

        Holy environmental damage, Batman (unless they had an electric vehicle).
