As the illustrious murle says, most won't.
Some will explode (crack and fall apart), others will be fine. LBS has no way of know which it will be, so generally won't risk it.
What type of fork is it? Some (like alpina) have a blanking plate screwed on before the final carbon wrap, you can take out the screw and blanking plate and they are generally ok.
