But their pricing hasn't been best-possible for a while now. I've been more and more frequently finding better prices through other venues.

That's because big box retailers are shipping at a loss: i ordered something from Home Depot that was $10 and got free shipping, 3-4 days too. For the same cost as the in-store item. No way is that profitable for them

They're all okay losing money in the short temp to capture online consumers

Are small sellers on ebay selling at a loss too?
