Online purchases may save you a few bucks but, if you have a problem you can't take it back to the store to get assistance and/or instant replacement.

Years ago, I worked at a car dealership in a small town. The big city dealers 30 minutes away could always beat our prices by a hundred or two (but rarely more than $50-100). Some of the price buyers smugly pointed out that they could still have the warranty work done in our shop. They were later shocked that we didn't provide them priority scheduling and a loaner car (at our request, the service manager always had them come to the sales dept to explain why). We advised them that those benefits were for those who bought the car from us. They were also shocked to find out that high volume/low markup dealer where they bought the car didn't give a flip about them and wouldn't give them that help either. So sad too bad.

You get what you pay for.
