Exactly right. These guys are used to dealing with professional welders and they can be a bit tough on you when you're new - be nice, it pays in the long run. Buy parts at your local shop instead of complaining about price and how things are cheaper on the net and you'll find them warming up quick.
I talked to my dealer over the course of several months about moving to T tanks for higher volume/lower cost and after coming in there every month for refills he cut my k-tank price in half.
Repeat customers without any grief is good business for them, and you.
It doesn't hurt to drop some nice glass ornaments on them around the holidays and such . . .
