| Trying before you buy is a definate must do. I recently tested two ride cymbols in a store side by side, same make same model etc and was amazed at the difference in sound between the two. They were a whole step apart!! I definately prefer to do business with a brick and mortar store when possible, for the above reason and for other reasons also, like supporting the local economy. I will take ads from on line retailers and ask how close they can come to the on-line price. I've never had a store yet not agree to match the on-line price. |
