"...without purchasing it there, then shopping online to find a lower price for the same item." - is 'getting the lowest price' really part of the (or a future) concept of showrooming? Think about it. Right now, it may be the most important factor, comparing prices, but in a future economy/ retail world, there may be players that live from revenue generated by offering showrooming facilities. Then, comparing prices and getting the lowest is part of the showrooming process but not the most important one!
Therefore, I opt for removing the 'then shopping online to find a lower price' notion from the article. Zuckerberg ( talk) 14:21, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

This article is heavily biased, describing purported benefits of showrooming to consumers and manufacturers, while ignoring likely negative effects, such as:
Many of these negative effects have been discussed in reputable publications and could be cited here, but in the interim, this article should be flagged as biased. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mkessel ( talk • contribs) 19:28, 26 August 2014
