As the owner of a store I agree with you. This is especially true with new packs and boxes of cards. They have a very slim profit margin. If someone can go to one of the big online retailers and buy a box for $200 with no tax and free shipping and I have to eat the $15 tax to compete - that may be the difference between making and losing money.
