Can Muslims buy products from any retailer no matter how far that retailer maybe? And How has pricing on particular products maybe?

Answer

According to the Shari'ah, a Muslim may purchase products anywhere. Being far is no restriction.

The Fuqahaa (jurists) have advised that the value of a product should not exceed double its market related value.
