Much better is buying on-line, where you buy it unseen and untried and if it's not suitable, send it back and get a credit note which hope you can exchange it for something that you want (as happened with me and lens).

I totally disagree.
Surely that’s the point of a shop, to give you the opportunity to handle, look at and try the products. It is much better for the customer if they can handle the product before they buy, that way you get the chance to decide if the product is the right one, and you can also compare different models. Buying blind you don’t know what your going to get and if the item is not suitable you’ve got all the hassle of returning it, plus additional postage costs.
