[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 7215468, member: 549629"] Car audio is a luxury industry, so its obviously going to take a big hit when the economy is tanking. That, plus the internet sales biting into local business, means many less-than-honest businesses out there are going to ramp up their attempts to swindle whatever they can out of anyone who walks through their doors. Stay alert guys. But, with that being said, a shop charging retail prices is not really underhanded. Local shops have overhead to pay for. But this added cost to their customers means, presumably, that their customers are receiving support/service they would not get if they purchased cheaper from an online source. Stay alert, but try to be fair in your assessment of local shops. [/QUOTE]
