That's why Mike T, Joe Lyons, SWE etc... all have such loyal customers. I can speak from experience that none of them have ever shown any impatience to my incessant and inane questions
I couldn't tell you the last time I shopped in a Wal-Mart. I do hit HD or Lowes every so often for little stuff, but the quality of the lumber, fixtures etc... just isn't to par with what you get from a professional shop.
If we let the big-box stores run everybody else out of business, there will be no selection or quality products left. Their model is about consumption. Home Depot doesn't care if their exterior lights rust in a year. Since you've shown the ability to install it yourself, chances are you'll just buy new ones or deal.
