You're assuming there are any left. Also, just because it's a small retailer doesn't mean the service is necessarily better, and the inventory is almost always lacking. I'm quite happy with my local GC Pro rep. My experience at smaller stores has not been positive, and I've spent hundreds or more that I didn't need to with the idea that I was supporting a local retailer that went out of business anyway. That was years ago, but I'm not all that sad to see them gone.
