Looking for a accurate reel dealer in MA

...that has a lot of the reels in stock on display. I would really like to hold several of the models to compare the feel. I love their reels I just want to go to a dealer that has a lot of them on display so I can touch and feel them.
I have been to a couple stores and they have one or two reels and while they say they can "order it" (so can I) and I really want to pick it up and maybe put it on a rod to gauge the feel.

Without going to a giant tackle store in Florida, is there a place in MA or RI that has a good selection of the mid-large models that you know of?

Fishin Finatics in Everett is a dealer. Not sure of the stock on hand? but I know he's got a boatload of his own personal reels he fishes.
