As crude as it sounds, screw that. I don't have spare cash to throw around just to "help the local economy", and I suspect a lot of other people don't either. Like it or not, given the same specifications and quality, most people will buy based on price.

I still do this, often, but sometimes you just have to do what you have to do. I am about to go to my mail box to get 2 HDMI cables and a screen protector that I paid 12 bucks for and most of that was shipping. I wanted to support Radio Shack, but they wanted I think 15 bucks for a generic screen protector. But yes, we do need to support the local guys. You'd hate to need something and want to pick it up but cant b/c they were closed.

thanks for the reminder, but more people than the OP read threads, so were also trying to hook up other people looking in on the thread...

Yeah, I like to do that as well - I'll be buying locally a pair of headphones today for $30, that I can get online for $22.

However, when the local markup is exorbitant - $59 vs $37 for a comparable product, there's no way in heck I'm going to make that distinction. $22 is a 59% markup. When it's that kind of markup I'd rather support a charity (I regularly do) than a local company.

I realize you could make a distinction that a class 2 sandisk is not comparable to a class 2 Dane Elec - but in my prior experience with products from those 2 companies, I feel they're comparable.
