Spider Monkey strikes again.

A shop owner got offended on another forum when I told someone local shops are a rip off do your research first.

What about paying the same for an Infinity Reference 12" that you could have paid for a Fi 12"?

local shops just cant get the online brands.

Local shops have overhead that online suppliers simply dont have, There are those that charge excessive profit. However there are often shops that are very reasonable, and are there when you need them unlike most online suppliers. If you want to learn about this hobby/sport/lifestyle time spent at a shop is one of the most valuable ways to spend your time except for time spent on CA.com of course.

The forum is taking a dump right now.

I agree with the overhead.

I don't agree that any of the shops are reasonably priced. Their is always an exception to that rule tho.

If I look at the local shops for what I can get for $1000 at a local shop and what I can get online makes me cringe.

I have lost count of how many threads i've read were someone bought a system from a local shop and did their research after and ended up replacing everything.
