Very true of course. However, not every store sells every make. In fact, many stores specialize in just one or two. So, skydivers need to do a lot of research before strolling into a shop. Or even before choosing which shop to go to. The Internet is a valuable tool for getting your bearings and finding out what's available out there.
Anyway, your comment seemed like most people spend their time buying vital items, I assume they are not and most people are buying items and using services which are available from various sites.
I did mention that the situation is different when buying common goods available from many sources. However, I felt the need to point out that in my opinion it's *not always* as simple as Marco makes it seem. Alphons -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. If you want to experience the element, get out of the vehicle.
