It's not that Fry's is expensive, it's that what they do have that's actually good is sold for full retail. Customer service can go in the hands of "why did you even buy the piece of crap in the first place?" Anytime you see one of those shiny CPU/motherboard deals for $100 or something it's usually about the cost of the CPU plus a motherboard for less than $20. Would you really expect it to last? Generally speaking, the better products (Antec cases, Intel & Asus boards, etc..) are usually just marked standard retail pricing. If everyone shopped online then the local economy suffers. There is no way I could earn a paycheck off of just sales when everyone wants a bargain. You want the cheapest? Happy shopping. You want the best? Talk to me.
