So do I, problem is eBay and the like is killing the retail industry, also the stores of a shopping center are costing the retailers around $5,000 to $10,000 per week rent, I don't know how they can afford it, some of these shops are stores like butchers, green grocer as well as shoes etc, that is a lot of sales to pay not only the rent but also wages, don't know how they do it!! The markup for goods here would be so high that in effect forces a lot of people to shop online. Now our stinking government is trying to add taxes and import duty to all items purchased on eBay, it's hard enough to survive as it is, this will really put an end to spending for a lot of people, including me!
Sucks is life!!
