I would disagree with this claim, and I tried to show the logical flaws with it 
in my previous post. In any event, if we do want to discuss this point more - 
whether or not it's appropriate in a theoretical sense to coordinate with other 
stores (setting aside any legal, political, or administrative concerns) - we 
should likely migrate to a new thread.
