I used to go to both of those sites and just look at what shit costs and yes, I have tried to see how much my dream setup would be. I've also compared prices a lot. For example, I compared a SBR short block, what the parts would have been separate from SBR, extremepsi, and eBay, then I found out how much it would cost for the cheapest from all of them. I've put many an hour into price research, now if only I could be motived to do it for that fucking paper due in two weeks
