They also told me that because the 2 units were shipped separately from their bulk order that Hobie had to charge them $400.00 PER Unit (thats right) PER UNIT for shipping! Does not leave much wiggle room I guess.

That's less than a 10% difference, not that much. I can't believe that they wouldn't price match to sell that yak.
I think the 4 bills to ship is BS.
If it were me I'd ask them to match the online price if you agreed to buy it
right then, and
then ask for a cash discount vs a credit card. That could shave off another $100+ dollars.
$2100 cash on the spot, and a stack of crisp 100 dollar bills. That's not a bad deal for either party, and you get to buy it locally which is even better for you.
