Nobody forces anyone to keep a retail shop open. If a business model is shit, non-competitive and outdated, perhaps the owner ought to re-invest in something else instead of whining and engaging in price-fixing/non-competitive strategies like we see happening with retails blackmailing suppliers to try shut down Aoraki Ammunition etc.
