Have you tried your local appliance dealers? Bring some of the East Coast posts in and say you'll buy it if they can match the price? Or come close?

Exactly how much price difference is there?

I agree with Plllog. However, if you want to buy online, and the seller has that "delivery restriction": call the seller and speak to a live person. I found that when you called, spoke to someone live, they were able to send you the appliance despite if you live in a "restricted" delivery location.

In fact, regardless, I think it's a good idea to speak to someone live, because they'll be able to tell you with greater reliability whether the specific appliance you want is actually in stock or not. The website listings are sometimes not up to date.

I recommend Abt appliances. They may not be the very lowest-priced seller, but they are the ones with the best reliability and customer service ratings.
