West Marine's mark up. Beware of shipping charges. I was looking for a 200 lb mooring anchor on line. I found some online for about $250. But that was without shipping, which added another $250. The places that advertised "free" shipping all charged over $500 for the anchor. Turned out the best price was, of all places, Walmart online.

Fellow Monties;
So West Marine sells 100' of grade 30 1/4" hot dip galvanized proof coil chain for around $400 but I can buy what appears to be the same stuff at Home Depot for about $200 and online for less than that all day long. What am I missing?
