Store auditioning and then buying on-line from others. How do you feel about it ?

I have never auditioned at a store then bought online but where I live unless you want an Anthem, Integra or similar items mainly used in Home Theaters there is nothing to really audition anymore though some will special order certain items.

Yeah, I myself wanted to do it many times and still do but never did. Zoroaster says no.

Here’s how I handle the situation.
Before audition, I discuss price considering online price and additional cost operating a BM. If we can’t agree, I move on and don’t waste stores time. Usually we agree on a price and both parties win.

I can't believe this is a serious question...
