Brakie, if the suggested retail is $114.95, the LHS buys it for $73.97 (40% off) to this he has to add shipping. The etailer is selling it for $80.50 so he is making $6.53 on the item less any shipping he paid. Now he probably charges more for shipping than it costs him. But maybe not. So the etailer is making about 7% on his purchase.
No wonder LHS are closing all over the USA. They cannot compete with etailers who have zero overhead and only want to make 7% per item.
This keeps up, no LHS will be left.
