[Public-List] Buying tip of the week

One of the earlier posts on this thread voiced outrage that WM had much higher prices.  To the contrary,  you should be glad they have the highest price.  That way the local Mom & Pop marine store can compete with better prices and much better service / advice.  When you should get upset is when the big chain store with their low payed staff uses their buying power to get a lower cost and then undercuts the local business on the common, volume items and then the Mom & Pop goes out of business and you lose the local guy who carried the full range of product on the shelf and had the product knowledge to answer your questions.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Cheers,   Rod
