Yet while at a store I do lack the power of the internet to come up with reviews about a product and a sales person walking around might be able to give somewhat of an impression, but he still wants to sell something, after all.<BR/><BR/>The absense of sales people is exactly what makes shopping on the internet much more pleasant. Besides, long before the internet we have had home shopping catalogues for decades, possibly longer (I'm not old enough to know). It's not very different from an electronic version of such a catalogue, except that it's always up to date.<BR/><BR/>Typing this gave me the time to think about it a bit longer, though. This got me thinking that maybe he's primarily talking in response to a sort of "e-shopping will completely replace 'classical' shopping" article written by someone.Franshttp://frans.lowter.usnoreply@blogger.com
