Product margins may seem excessive, but if you find a full service retailer who will support you in making long term investments - well I feel they've earned their profit.
Operating a retail store involves selecting optimum equipment, setting up and rotating displays, keeping inventory, operating a store whose logistics include staff & scheduling, employee benefits and taxes, business insurance, utilities, building maintenance - to name the first few that come to mind.
That doesn't mean the conventional retailer doesn't discount, it means they can offer a reasonable discount and still stay in business. But a conventional retailer will never be able to match internet retailers' discounts because they have significantly greater fixed expenses.
The high end conventional retailer educates clients where the internet retailer relies on volume.
For my family and I, it's essential to get things right instead of making repeated attempts to create a system for enjoying music.
Life it too short to not listen to music that stirs our senses and moves our souls .
