The '''retail shelf''' is where a customer first encounters the [[barcode]] and other aspects of the [[product label]] (like [[nutritional information]] and any [[standard label]] included on it like "[[kosher]]" or "[[dolphin free]]").

Because a customer moves past many such shelves rapidly, this is probably the worst possible point to ask them to use a [[worn device]], certainly not one that they must pull off a [[belt]] or out of a [[pocket]] to use, or which is not [[handsfree]]. For these reasons the [[headset]] is the best device for delivering any detailed information at this location.

This and the [[checkout counter]] are the only two guaranteed places in-store that the customer will encounter, so any [[Consumerium Service access]] should be optimized for these. In [[friendly retail]] locations, e.g. the [[Big Carrot]] type store or [[local co-op]]s, it might be possible to augment the '''shelf''' itself, if the [[institutional buying criteria]] of that store are likely to closely match the [[individual buying criteria]] of the customer. In that case, the [[Consumerium buying signal]]'s positive choice information becomes a definite [[price premium]] factor, and the whole store will probably be able to charge more for providing such complete profiles of what the customer is buying.
