[QUOTE="cichlid_baby, post: 6327272, member: 603435"] There is definately some work involved with being a smart and informed shopper. But more often than not.. it is worth it. Also.. I make a habit of NEVER shopping at places where they don't have a good return policy. This is part of the "customer service" (as argued "that's what we pay for") that is supposed to be expected from the local brick and mortar stores as opposed to mail order. Most reputable places that want to earn and keep your business already have policies in place such as lowest price guarantee, satisfaction guarantee, etc.. if the places you are shopping don't participate in these very normal business practices.. then you need to start voting NO with your dollars and shop elsewhere. Quit supporting these lacking shops and support the business that knows how to earn and keep your business. Actually.. most places encourage you to price shop.. I've even had places that would help me compare prices online and see if they could do anything to move their prices to be more competitive. At this point.. take it as a lesson learned.. we all have taken our lumps before. [/QUOTE]
