If you are always shopping by the cheapest price and you're getting the same physical item, how do you think they manage to shave off the price? Their customer service will not always be on the same level as a place that you are always paying full retail for an item. Just won't happen. Somehow they have to make up the difference for the cheap price. Why do you think Crutchfield has legendary customer service, and will happily replace damn near anything you can shake your dick at? Oh, yeah. They charge full retail.

And on that note, when you go to your local shop, you should expect him to be higher than Sonic, and for good reason. He's got a brick and mortar store. He doesn't move the volume that Sonic does. When you have a problem, you can drop by his shop to find a fix, and not shoot out an email and hope for the best. In addition, there is a little thing called "repeat customers" when you are a private entrepreneur like dman (since you have publicly attacked him as a vendor). I guarantee if you are a guy who has bought many things, and spent many thousands of dollars with a private shop, you likely will get better deals, and more personal service. You're in for your first purchase at his shop that totals oh, say $200, and you expect a price cut to match a huge online retailer? Good luck, buddy. Be glad if all you get is a big laugh and a crazy smile. Part of that protects the little guy from the crap you pulled here.

This was all covered way back in post #43....

And you can hardly call me a "Sonic diehard"... I've ordered from them just twice. Both times were great. Now if you had said "Newegg diehard", I would have said "guilty....." as I have ordered from them well over 100 different times.

In addition, I can see you haven't read or heeded any of the other posts here except your own. You choose to argue with plenty, and cry conspiracy.... **NEWS FLASH**- Sonic doesn't send us royalty checks every month, but it's something we can toss around at next month's board meeting.
