Is it frowned upon to order items on Amazon at a cheaper price?
I plan on going to a rodeo sometime next month and I told my friend (M29) that I plan on buying my outfit from Amazon because the price is a lot cheaper. I plan on getting some boots($60), a hat($25), and a belt buckle($13). He told me it’s frowned upon to buy items on Amazon because it’s not “real and authentic” western wear. If I were to go to my local western wear shop, the price of everything I just listed is at least 2 times the price in store.
Is it ok for me to order from Amazon or do I have to go to an official western wear store ?
