your sarcasm is why people hate cycling elitists. Jabs aside work is work and how is a LBS in this case spending their capital? They do not have to spend their budget or tie up part of their credit line to obtain the group set I was going to buy independently. Real estate, again they didn't need to accept or hold any stock since the place didn't even carry any full on group sets let a lone parts above Tiagra. Staff, I literally was giving work to their staff... Advertising? It be one thing if they purchased an ad to sell Shimano group sets and I went there just to look at the parts or price match them. All and all you have no clue what you are talking about. If anything I was saving them money. My point is the attitude of LBS and them being in this sinking ship refusing to pump water out.
