[QUOTE="o. l. t., post: 5686047, member: 569202"] The shop isn't going to care much if they are not selling you the equipment anyway. They won't wty the stuff since they didn't sell it so even if they screw up, you eat the results. If paying for a little more wty protection gives you peace of mind, try asking them if they'd be willing to work with you SOME on the pricing that you have printed off and brought with you to show. You understand they can't match it, but meet you half way on it. Everybody wins and you get a better wty on the install as they will now be covering the equipment as well as the install. It's very hard for stores to match the internet. Sometimes the internet is cheaper than the wholesale the shops are getting when buying 5 units at a time from the middle man as people on the net are buying in large bulk and moving much higher quantities at lower price to make the same money. When I owned stores I simply cut my profit in half of normal to do a price match no matter what the end result in price was. I can only absorb so much so sometimes the price you have is not relevant to the end result. The only relevance is what the shop is willing to lose from expected margins. [/QUOTE]
