To a large degree, this exchange of an outside purchase at an LDS is a matter of how you handle it. Sure, if you accommodate the exchange at little or no charge, you probably make another customer, plus his friends. If you politely explain that you can not do that, neither of you are likely to benefit. If you tell him to get his online shopping ass out of your store you have probably made an enemy who will take opportunities to steer business away from you (except for the "showroom" customers). But if you begrudgingly accommodate the exchange, you mayn still turn off the potential future customers.
The business needs to consider both attitude and action. Bad attitude may invite your becoming a Local Dive Showroom.
If business is good, it may not matter, yet. There is little benefit in unnecessarily pissing off customers.
