Amazon has a distribution center in my state. We get charged for the sales tax for Amazon orders.

So if Best Buy matched the price for the same item as Amazon, and sales tax was equal, what was the cost difference due to? Warranty Program? Something else?

Mileage, time, gas, convenience.

Last week I needed a toner cartridge and a new wireless mouse. Even though there is a Best Buy not 5 miles from my house, why would I want to spend an hour getting there, finding the stuff, buying it, and going back home. And spend maybe a buck or two in gas. Yes, if you are already at BB (showroom shopping) and the price is matched - then yeah. Go ahead and buy it.
