I started window shopping Amazon, and then I 90% of the time order somewhere else.
YES!!! I have found that also. Additionally, the reviews are often NOT of the identical item being sold, but are same brand, but different model. For bike parts I have found Universal Cycle and Jenson almost always to be cheaper, and almost always better packed.
