Agreed if you are buying lots of plumbing ie. the initial plumbing set-up for a whole tank.

However typically I am looking for just one piece. The same piece that 200 other guys probably want for their reef tank, and that the hardware store has never heard of.

I have wasted enough gas and hours driving around trying to find parts.

As an example I found a John Guest fitting I wanted at OA. They aren't going to make any profit selling me one John Guest fitting, but by having a few containers full of these fittings they are doing their customers a huge service and thereby earning lots of goodwill.
