GL: Buying from a trusted vendor

[William J Russell]

Hello All,
   Under the subject of EPIRB's and rescue, someone mentioned checking 
prices on the Internet, but then mentioned using a trusted vendor.
   As of about a year ago, West Marine would match the price + shipping 
from Internet vendors.  Just print out the info and take it to your 
local store, they match the price.  I don't have a catalog handy, but 
it is published in the back of their catalog, I believe under their 
policies.
   Thanks to a friend for pointing this out.  Now you can get the best 
price and from a "trusted" vendor.
