[QUOTE="Pickles JG, post: 4215434, member: 61501"] The trouble is that people cannot always recognise their interests (in a way I hope is nto patronising). B&M game stores have to provide other features as well as product - the option to peek at books, insight from the staff & space to play. This last is the most important really - if there is no gaming community then noone will want the products, no matter what price, as they cannot play with them. I am not sure how much of this effects D&D as I do not know how much D&D is plyed in stores - I have always played at home. It does effect some miniatures games & card games that I play. On the other hand electronic games shops provide me with no value - peeking & playing are not issues & the staff are invariably imbecilic so I always shop online - I do not care if the highstreet games shops go out of business & I doubt very much it would hurt anyone other than them if they did.
