Re: [Tagging] Re: shops for display

My case was where you can't enter the premises, it's really just displaying goods or even (slightly different) displaying contact details for the business which has moved to the outskirts of town. -- Sent from my Android phone with WEB.DE Mail.

In the UK we have a shop called Argos, where you order from a catalogue then the item appears on a conveyor from an attached storage area a few minutes later. You could also ask to see something before you bought it. A few years ago they were large shops that had stock of pretty much everything in the catalogue. Now they have become small areas in a supermarket which have no stock and everything has to be ordered online and collected the next day. Other high street shops are going the same way and making themselves irrelevant.

The shop do not actually have kitchens for sale in the store. I agree with that. But from the users point of view, there are some implicit expectations depending of what is sold. For shop=estate_agent it should be obvious that you do not get anything physical at the store. For shop=car it is less clear. Also for shop=kitchen, some places will sell you a flatpack kitchen, that you can put in the back of your car. I once drove to a shop=pet only to find out that it was the office for a pet webshop that had a small showroom of cat scrathcing pads, etc. For eg furniture, appliances, bathroom devices, bicycles, glassware there are showrooms and a user could reasonable expect to be able to go there and just buy an item. With more stuff being sold online, we will probably see more showrooms, and I think we should have a way to tell users if they can buy anything at a shop, or it is just a showroom. „ordering“ a kitchen or car in a shop is a sale, IMHO. The word sale does not imply you take the goods away with you immediately, nor that they are necessarily present at the point of sale.
