Minori, your comments about the auto and audio industry are only partially true. Sadly there are a lot of car dealers whose practices are borderline scam and fraud. But just like not all brick and mortar audio stores are jerks, so it is with the car business. There are decent dealers...you just have to look for them. Same with good audio stores. Same here on Audiogon and on Ebay. Frankly I would rather pay more for a product from some company that is customer oriented. There isn't enough of a saving from a bad sales experience to justify doing business with them.
