I had a thought today when I was looking over the winter clearance sales at both JensonUSA and Performance Bike. I wonder if you could get a little price war going. JensonUSA already has a price match thing, but what if you emailed their sales deptartment a link to a cheaper product at Performance Bike and see if they will beat the price. Then if they respond with a lower price… turn around and send it to Performance to see if they will match it.

I have never tried this, but with the extensive competition between all the online retailers, you may be able to get some lower prices. Also, there are a ton of smaller stores with just a few employees which means a lot more flexibility in people making choices on pricing. Give it a try and let me know if anything comes of it. It would be an interesting experiment.
