Retailers need to compete with online competition and get their act together. Example Compusa. I needed a plain power cable for a PC. Price at CompUSA $19.99. Price at Intrex $1.50. Give me a break there is no explanation between the two prices. If anything Compusa should be cheaper. I can take a markup for convienence but that is a little excessive.
A couple of months ago I went shopping for a Minolta A1 digital camera... MSRP is $1200, Wolf Camera at Crabtree had it for $900... I can get it from Amazon for $699 with free shipping. I'm all for supporting the local guy but not for $200. I tried to get Wolf to give me a compact flash or *something* to even out the deal but the best they could do was some free photo finishing.
