“I even look at the Amazon ratings “
About a month ago I ordered a cordless mouse through Amazon.
It was shipped by the retailer,not Amazon,and they shipped overnight-——which I had not ordered.
I was upset until I opened the package and they said,in a note,that the express shipping was a gift and would I please remember to go on-line and rate the transaction.
The product was just as I ordered,well packaged and I gave them five stars.

There are still some stores with high prices that will make it. I have friends who shop frequently at Cabela’s and they all have the Cabela’s credit card that they use for everything. I would guess Cabela’s makes as much on their credit card as they do at the stores so that has to help their bottom line.
