Ok, I love to support my LBS but when it comes to clothes, I'm forced to
go
online to the discount stores. Why should I pay $80+ for a jersey when I
can
get two for $50 at Perfomance? I've worn Performance clothes for several
years now with no complaints. So why do people buy name brand? What am I
missing? It's an honest question.

Buy your bike there. Have work done there that you can't do yourself. Buy
anything you must have right away there. Buy anything that you evaluate
there there. Buy everything else as cheaply as you can.
