Thanks. Just tried that but no remove circle appears when I click on the shop area. If I click on the wooden floor, my character moved to that spot. If I click on the stone area where the shop's equipment is placed, or the stone floor itself, I get the standard "Move: That Space is Currently Blocked Message."
When I say "click" i mean touch, as I have the iPad version. Perhaps this is a bug in the iPad version. I did read another post in these forums where the developer states that you can remove shops, but the instructions he provides cannot be reproduced on my iPad version.
