Amen
I wanted to touch and see the screen before I first bought my first reader (EZReader pocket pro. a 5" version of the 6" that was at Fry's.)
Same goes with most of my electronics. I want to see the controls and what IO (on the back).
Even with that, I did get faked out with a early RGB input CRT TV with a composite inputs on the side and back. It turned out those were the same input (share in the fine print) when I had wanted 2.
Walmart did have a display. They just had the high end Kobo models there. I had to order the Aura2 for pickup. That probably hurt sales numbers. If they even had a Pulltag system (where you pick up at the counter) for IMMEDIATE delivery would have discouraged "I order it later" . (Ducks is from a 3rd generation of merchants.
