Wow good for you, that sounds like a good system for ensuring quality results if you have enough stores in your vicinity. It’s true that they’ll gladly sell you stuff that doesn’t work. I’ve had decent luck so far, but it does take a lot of research and I do tend to be more conservative in purchases. What’s the last great item you bought after seeing it in person?
