My local dealer has become my friend, really, not just in appearance only. Like many of the others above, he has allowed me to take items home to audition with no payment up front, treats me with respect even though I usually look/dress like a bum and did so from the first time I walked in the store, but most of all he was NEVER condescending toward me when I got back into this hobby/obsession after a long time away. I'm sure I said lots of stupid things, but he never once looked at me/talked to me like I was an idiot, even though I was. Rather, he took the time to educate me.
I haven't bought much of anything from him lately, because he doesn't carry lines I'm interested in, but I'll probably stop by there this afternoon to hang out, BS about things, maybe even talk about audio!
