I don't think I'd trust her-the only way this could be true is via the qualifier 'certain'. Maybe very, very, high-end? Ordinary shoe stores certainly aren't so her statement shows her inclination to inflate the truth. I'm sure that applies to her opinion of book stores, too.
Like an auto dealership. If you're in the market for a Ferrari then you probably don't mind paying for a test-drive, but most dealership survive by selling Fords (or equivalent).
