Here's a good LP vs LDS story (incidentally, I've buy from both).
Just bought myself a new Henderson 3mm from my favourite LDS. Anything I buy from an LDS I buy from them, so they cut me a bit of a discount. Didn't have to buy a lot of other crap, or anything else. Just the 3mm. Checked the same item on LP, which was about $20 more.
Sometimes a good LDS can surprise you....
