Agree totally with where your coming from , but in my situation fortunately I don’t have to shop around for the “absolute cheapest price” but I know many other members do
When I need to buy something I enjoy walking into Bintel and chatting to John, Don, Mike and others who are more than happy to talk for a bit ( I know how busy they are ) even if it’s not about astronomy , but it tends to always end up with astronomy
It makes the process of purchasing something more enjoyable and I never feel rushed , even when the shop gets busy
Just my experience
Cheers
