    I agree that West Marine is getting expensive. In fact I was at the New
    Bedford, MA store today and mentioned to the manager the slamming they're getting
    on the net.

    To cut to the chase, he raised 2 good points.

    The 1st, being the most important. If I make it to FL and have a problem w/
    some item I bought from West Marine in N.E., any West Marine store in FL (or
    the world for that matter) will take responsibility for the issue and help me
    out.

    2nd, they will match any catalog. For instance, I was at Jamestown
    Distributors today and their medium sized "Git Rot" was 1/2 the price that it was at
    West.

    I am often offended by WM's prices, but they do match catalogs, and are most
    gracious about returns.

    I always over buy, as we live 2.5 hrs inland from Buzzards Bay, and the "Boat
    Places" around here are useless.

    All in all, I think they are a great store. I wanted some "anti Bond 2015"
    which is supposed to break down 5200. Jamestown Distributors had not heard of
    it, WM said "Isle 2, at the end cap"

    Context is everthing, even me!!
