Ex: It has never yet been seriously argued that there should be restrictions placed on any retail outlets wishing to sell books.

Ex: In strong contrast to, say, television sets and instant coffee, where the consumer may save by shopping around, there is no advantage to be gained by going to one shop rather than another for a book so far as price is concerned.

Ex: The cheapest of these machines costs under $100 and they can be bought in stores, supermarkets and by mail-order.

Ex: The customers preferred to go in by a glazed door set in the shop-front and giving onto the street, even though this meant going down some steps, the floor of the workshop being below road-level.

Ex: We need to act on this conviction (it means a shift in political and social consciousness that may be painful to many) if the library is to be a source of energy and not a drugstore.

Ex: This article outlines some of the virtual shopping malls and storefronts available and explains how to find out about commercial resources on the net = Este artículo describe en líneas generales algunos de los centros comerciales y tiendas virtuales existentes y explica cómo encontrar recursos comerciales en la red.

Ex: People do not come to the public library for alternative material to the high street commercial outlet.

Ex: Another main trend emerging is merchandising, where the public library is set up in a similar way to a retail store with items on sale.
