Yeah, I'm usually pretty jealous at the plumbing supply stores I see and how well stocked they are when I come out to the coast. It's weird what you find yourself noticing after a few years in this hobby. "Aw man, this place has GATE VALVES? What the HE** !!!" I have found myself uttering these words sooooo many times when on vacation.

Around here though, not so much. I think it's because irrigated agriculture is much bigger out your way than it is here (which also doesn't make sense. Where does it usually rain? Where does is usually NOT rain? Summer 2010 notwithstanding.)

Anyhow I don't pretend to understand anything anymore. It is what it is. Until someone tells me the secret place that sells PVC bits galore around here, it's a combo of Red Coral, Western Pump, and Home Depot/Rona. Each place sells about 90% of what you need at any one moment. So you have to hope that the overlap of each 90% on top of each other covers closer to 98%-100% of what you need, you just accept that you have to hit up each one of them until you have everything you need, or enough for a suitable workaround.
