[QUOTE="Rich B, post: 2484030, member: 571023"] I would love to buy locally, even if the prices were 20% above online due to waranties, but local shops are usually 50-60% higher so I dont. For example, I went to a shop in this area named Lee's Stereo looking to buy some Q-Forms (prefab kickpanels) which have a list price of $199. They are sold all day long on the net for $129 to $149, and I would have been okay even buying from them at $169 to $180, so I had already decided I would buy locally from Lee's. I went in, told the idiot kid what I was looking for (he had to ask, never heard of them), and he quoted me a price of [B]$210[/B]!

Its online from here on out for me. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
