There is still something to be said about having a relationship with a local pro camera shop, if a good one exists in your area.
While I buy my fair share from B&H and others online, primarily for harder to find items they have in stock that would take a local shop weeks to order in specially, I will buy from my dealer for major purchases such as Canon pro bodies and L lenses. I will often receive in demand new product well before most others have their backorders filled from the major suppliers such as B&H and Amazon.
