In short, I expect someone trying to sell me something to be an expert. And they hardly ever are. No wonder I go for do-it-yourself low prices.

Some industries are notorious for unskilled sales people. Usually the ones that focus too much on money, and deal with customers that are often gullible and will gobble down any snake oil they're offered. Audiophiles and tv-philes are notably among them, in general. (Clearly, you're not typical for those markets, or you wouldn't be asking those sorts of questions.)
