And I believe that the parts at the independantly owned hardware and auto parts stores would be from the same factory being built to same specifications. Just when packaged they just grab a different box, one for store A, next box store b, next for store C and back to store A. I like the local stores as well but do not think you get any better parts there, just being they buy by the box of say a pipe fitting the national will buy by the truck load of boxes so they can sell the item for less than the small purchaser can buy the item for. I do know that 30 years ago my Father-in-law when buying something simple for his drug store he could only buy 6 bottles of rubbing achol at a time but his bigger competor in same town (also independantly owned) could buy instead of 6 bottles he could buy 6 cases and his cost then was enough less that he could sell it at a profit for less than my Father-in-law had to pay for it. Now the chain store instead of the 6 cases would but like 6 truckloades at a time and get each bottle for probably 2% of cost my father-in-law had to pay for the same bottle. This is same exact product. Just the manufacture with less cost to send out large orders could do it so much cheaper to the big box store. When chain store came in they came to him to buy him out and get him to work for them. Where he was having to scrimp to get by and working 80 hours a weel he then was getting more money to live on and working 40 hours a week and also could get a vacation.
