Because I live in an obscure tourist city, where everyone goes, and no one actually stays, if I want a Mac, I would have to order it from the Apple website. Nobody really stays here long enough to buy something more expensive than a novelty mug, so I don't have the luxury of having an Apple store any closer than Alabama.

tl;dr Your customer service argument doesn't apply to everyone.
