I grew up in Italy, which also has draconian laws protecting independent bookstores.
The result is expensive books and difficulty to find the titles you want.
Long live Amazon, free shipping, competition, and economies of scale.
If someone wants to support small bookstores, I hope they would do it with their own money, not with mine.
I am sorry for the people of France, or Italy, or any other place where stupid government policy keeps literature expensive.
