Great experience at REI today

Was planning on using Nashbar to get a new set of wheels but got impatient today and stopped in my local REI.
The manager of the bike dept. happened upon me and I ended up buying the only set of Shimano Ultegra WH 6800 wheels they had in stock.
They were around $100 more than if I bought through Nashbar but I got a $20 gc plus I will get $40 back from being an REI member.
The best part though was that I walked in off the street and they installed the cassette spacer, took the tires and tubes off my old wheels and installed them on my new wheels while I waited for a grand total of $20.
This also included re-installing the sensor for my computer and a quick cleaning of the bike.
First time using REI as my LBS was closed but a great experience.
Plus I like the fact that if I have any issues at all they will back the wheels for a year without me having to ship them
