I'm comparing two stores that sell the EXACT SAME TV, but one trades customer service for price. In THAT scenario, your average consumer will buy the TV at Walmart/Best Buy instead of Ed's Audio Video World if they can save $100
I give another example. I recently purchased a GPS Garmin Nuvi 205, I shopped Ebay and Amazon on the internet. Each source listed various vendors, I did not buy the from the lowest priced vendor, because of "feedback". I would rather pay a little more up-front to avoid aggravation later, that commands a premium in my book.
