Unless a buddy is working at a shop that has what I want, then I'm not going to a shop. 99% of the time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

brick and moarter shops are great, but alot of them charge out the anus.

even if you dont know 100% about the install, you can still have them install it - with the exception that you will supervise the whole install. i myself (if i didnt know how to do it lol) would purchase all my stuff online to save a bit of cash, then pay tweeter to install it - but i would watch them like a hawk when they are doing it.

thats prolly the ebst way if you dont know what you are doing 100% and dont want to worry about breaking anything and having to pay for it.

thats prolly the best way if you dont know what you are doing 100% and dont want to worry about breaking anything and having to pay for it.

I have encountered shops in the past that while they'll be happy to charge you their exhorbitant install fees to put in something you didn't buy from them they claim not to be held liable if the gear doesn't work. If you buy something online (read that as "probably unauthorized") and it doesn't work then you've been stung twice.
If he's n00bish enough to pay Tweeter's install fees I reckon it's possible he'd currently be incapable of benching any gear he bought online prior to getting it installed.

If Tweeter has gear he wants at prices he's willing to pay then my vote goes to getting the stuff authorized and warrantied. If they don't have any decent deals then off to eBay with ya!

What it is your looking to buy and have installed? If it is nothing major there's likely a walk-thru somewhere we can point you to and save you some cash. Crutchfield's Learning Center has some good information for beginners and it is laid out in easy to navigate categories...
