      Aren’t pretty much all storefronts searchable, or is it a Europe thing?

      I shop primarily local and find stores with ddg/Google/Google maps. I live in a country where Amazon doesn’t exist, and shipping takes at least 3-7 days, so I’ve always bought stuff from local stores. Of course not everything is sold in a physical store, for which you’ll probably have to use ebay.

        For large chain stores that happen to be local, Google is fine. But I can’t get an inventory from the local mom&pop grocery. Or even the local game stores that have a website with an inventory, Google doesn’t search among them, so I’m stuck going to multiple websites to search by hand.

        It’s just a pain, and if it’s a pain, I’ll only do it half as much as I could.
