I could counter that with when is the last time you called to haggle the price of your electric bill or did the same thing at the grocery store?

Well I do shop for groceries where the prices are low and I also chose an electicity provider with a low rate.
I never haggle with parts vendors over the price of their parts. I simply check their website. If it's not listed I take a minute of their time to call and ask. No haggling involved...
Anyway, I put that question out there for the folks who think that I should be blindly paying MSRP. Sorry, I'm just not programmed that way. Sure, sometimes I do pay it if it makes sense but no way do I do it every time just because someone thinks it is the right thing to do.
Flame suit on,
