I use TD quite a bit, but I have the option of supporting my local guy as well, since the Tackle Direct store is about five minutes from my house. It's a pretty cool store, but definitely on the up-scale side of things. Lots of dark, rich wood making up the counter, rod stands, and shelves.
Anyway, their prices are good, and the guys that work there are nice and helpful. I worked for the owner of TD about 12 years ago, when he owned a rental boat / gas dock / dockside restaurant. He was a good guy to work for.
If you can support your local guy and get a good price on something, then buy it there. If you're buying something and TD or another online place has a great price on it, then buy it there. It's your call.
