'Smartphone repair shop' near where I live. Has always light on (24/7 confirmed), but nobody inside. At times an ad flag (those 2mt tall with the shop name on it) comes out and is near the entrance.
One time I managed to catch a guy behind the counter and entered for asking if they had some spare parts (I think it was a battery) and he looked fucking disgusted just because I dared to enter. Useless to say, they did not have any spare parts.
As of today (4 or 5 months), not a single client entered.
Also, that shop that sells completely random stuff (chandeliers, dolls, weird statues, horrible carpets and so much more junk), never seen it open but have been there for like at least 30 years.
We had one of those. It turns out it was owned by a rental agent, and he just used it to store the random stuff he'd use to furnish appartments with to rent out.
Oh yeah, we also have this in my city, in quite a prime spot of the old town. However since it's such an old shop, I'm not sure if it just belongs to a family that owns (not rents) that space since generations (and isn't really sure what to do with it except for "selling" that stuff).
Yeah that was my first thought, I've seen a ton of those old stores that are just abandoned with inventory still inside, even went exploring one once, second floor was starting to fall in, I didn't dare enter the basement because it felt like the beginning of a slasher movie... Owner lives a few houses down the road and just continues paying his taxes so he doesn't care...
