I don't know if calling this guy greedy is fair. You have no idea what his cost is for that ballast compared to Amazon. Yeah, his price is higher than Amazon. That's pretty much all you can say. For all you know, he makes less over his cost than Amazon does.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JKY9VK?refRID=EJNKXG8213SBST294G3S&ref_=pd_rhf_sc_p_img_1
I'm into this type of ballast, idc what the led sluts think honestly lol, here's the local stores price for the EXACT same ballast! Do you homework people! http://www.gtghydroponics.com/store/0-0-1601.htm for fucks sake this dude is greedy!
Nutes, soil, trays, pots are always gonna be cheaper at a grow store tho.I don't know if calling this guy greedy is fair. You have no idea what his cost is for that ballast compared to Amazon.

Seriously, what is this guy to do to in order to compete? Buy 1000 ballasts to get the best price/shipping? Invest $100m in a super efficient logistics and fulfillment system? Fire his staff?
It isn't terribly easy having a garden shop today when your typical customer buys all his shit on Amazon and uses the garden shop for only heavy items (like soil) product advice and trouble shooting.
So buy it from Amazon - but don't expect there to be a local grow shop for long.
I doubt if greed enters into this.
No your wrong! i have the sunsystems catalog he orders from, he's greedy. I am glad i have options like amazon so i can save money! You wanna throw your money away go ahead i dont roll like that. I dont buy nutes from stores, i source from compost bins/worm bins true living organics mindset. My containers come from the recycling center in town. I am an evil nasty person though im sure in your eyes because im frugal.I don't know if calling this guy greedy is fair. You have no idea what his cost is for that ballast compared to Amazon.

You are the Amazon of begging. Think of all the needy local people being undercut by your online begging tactics. I salute you.

No, but I'd say you have no basic understanding of how retail/wholesale commerce works and what a brick n mortar shop needs to do to stay in business. I buy from the local shop when I want the item now, when I don't want to risk potential shipping damage, when I wish to chat and cuz I'm glad his shop is available. My guy gives a 10-15% discount (sometimes more) to good repeat customers on all purchases; will talk with you as long as needed, will source stuff for me, is quite open to new ideas and products,etc. I've bought fixtures thru Amazon, but I buy replacement stuff thru the shop. It's very nice having them close byNo your wrong! i have the sunsystems catalog he orders from, he's greedy. I am glad i have options like amazon so i can save money!
