    This is an important point. A *lot* of people regard your display as
    a substitute for a cane. I've had elderly patrons cruise along my
    display like a kid at the side of a pool, waiting til the last
    moment before letting go and launching into the "deep water" where
    there's no support. Everything you set up has to be able to
    withstand this, along with the mom who plunks her infant, baby seat
    and all, on top of your counter while she looks for that single
    earring in her purse. 

    Seriously, no matter how unwarranted the abuse someone gives your
    display, it's *your* butt if junior manages to pull your case down
    on his head.
