I can only speak for the store which is a mile from my house. I haven't purchased anything major in there for years because you have to beg and plead to actually get a sale rep to help you. They are usually to busy chatting or playing with the Dj equipment rather then helping you. Also in the old days, they would give you a couple of buck off whether it was cables or a large pa. They took care of their customers. Now you get the corporate line. "We are no longer allowed to give discounts, unless you bring in a competitor's ad, advertising it for less" or unless you spend a gazillion dollars, they may give you $3 off.

Unless I have emergency, where i need cables or something, No thanks, I'll try somewhere else first!
