Randy, Costco's website was easy to navigate and worked well for me. I always thought the warehouse stores (Price Plus/Costco and Wallmart with Sam's Town) could work the internet B to C format into their models much easier than the regular retailers. Walmart hasn't been able to get its act together but Costco looks like it finally understands. Costco is carrying items on the web that they aren't in my local store and they appear to be increasing the items available daily. Disregarding the $200 price difference between Amzn and Costco for the moment - not having to deal with shipping returns is very appealing, I would think, to most consumers. Of course, this only works if Costco is in your town. Jerry
