On-line retail

I had a debate last night about on-line retail. I pointed out that shops are doomed and she disagreed because she doesn’t like on-line shopping.

I then countered with the clear trend towards on-line shopping and she countered with the concept that only certain categories of shopping are suitable for on-line retail, and that, for example, only retards like me would even consider buying jeans on-line.

I said that this is just a technology challenge and that in retail the lowest cost will always win despite constraints of practicality.

She retains the right to have a different opinion. I retain the right to be right. And I am.
