I don't think online shopping will ever replace in person shopping, only supplement it. Why? because shopping is fun. Window shopping is fun. Instant gratification is fun. Shopping is a process. You can't smell perfume or thump a melon online.

Even if you get nanobots to build you a new widget to your specifications on the spot--it's not the same as strolling through shops pretending you can buy everything.
