I've more or less given up with small shops. Getting Pentax products locally has been a pain for a number of years anyway, but the last couple of visits to a shop were ruined by the staff trying to sell me what they want shot of. Some are stunned you want to examine the goods before paying up. At this point, the shop has outlived it's usefulness in the consumer buying chain. If you know what you want, you can compare prices and have the item delivered to your door without leaving the house. Sometimes these small shops are their own worst enemy.
