It really does! I went to a local shop where the staff were super helpful but the product range was limited. It’s all about finding that balance.

Its true! Plus, some brands release exclusive products only through shops, not online platforms—definitely worth checking them out!

Exactly! But make sure to read reviews! Sometimes, the hype doesn’t match the quality.

So true! It can be a bit of a gamble. Humorously, I once bought a club that was advertised as ‘perfect for beginners’ and it turned out to be a medieval weapon!
