Have you tried looking for the list of independent booksellers on Kobo's site and calling around?
I'm not a big fan of this, but someone suggested Best Buy has a store return policy and that you can order online and return locally if unsatisfied... Why a brick and mortar chain has a hard time showing a display unit boggles the mind. You want to sell something? Put it in the prospective buyers hand and it becomes real, a tangible thing.
Once upon a time, retail had three advantages
1. It's in stock. You can have it NOW!
2. You can see it or handle it before you buy one.
3. Knowledgeable Sales Assistance. OK, maybe only two...
Why else would you pay retail?
