You have to remember though that alot of dealers have very big overhead cost that must be paid. Large buliding(shiney and new, lots of employees, tons of tool, equipment, and all sort of thing they must be able to accomplish. Web sites that sale this stuff is probably just a hand full of people(5-10)that don't have alot of the above items. Some don't even have a building, and if they do I'd bet it to be a small rented place at that. Most just do what's called "drop shipping" this is where you order from then, they place that order with wholesellers, then the item is shipped directly to you. They never see the item you just bought. However that said, some dealers do have good prices and I would think this is because they do lots of mail orders and therefore because of this, they can sale at lower prices. large volume selling almost always equals lower prices.
See Ya,
Phil
