You big fool you, I hope you enjoy having all that spare cash left over to spend on a HD console to go with your TV!
And yeah I have to admit I've used retail as a good reference for buying things online too, it's handy to visually see the item before buying it, but having a handful of annoying twerps jumping around greeting you with fake platitudes and asking you to make sure you say their name when at the til in our stores is just a reminder than their saleries are all added onto every purchase you make in those stores.
As for the "buying online costs jobs" No, it doesn't, it can shift local jobs into larger global companies for sure, but there is a person working at Amazon in place of the person working at the brick and mortar shop who as a lot of people know well and have stated here "aren't paid enough to care if you buy online" so they don't care about their position and as such them losing that job will happen as a result.

Haha, yeah, and they always seem to "have that one myself"!

I overheard one sales person in Harvey Normans here trying to tell someone that they would be able to get software online after buying a printer to allow a printer print in duplex mode, I had a gander at it, sure... you could print on both sides of the paper for sure, as long as you were fine with taking the printout and turning it over manually, physically no way the printer itself would ever be able to do it. Even had a look online at the time to see was there a duplexing unit which could be added to it, there was not.
