I'm seeing people say that "reptiles don't belong in pet stores" . That says enough to me. Additionally, big name stores aren't the only ones that are can be bad. Small mom & pop stores can do the same.

And surprisingly, the local petsmarts in my area take decent care of their reptiles. It really boils down to how the individual stores are ran.
