It is not large by US standards, but here in Oz, Harris Technology
(http://ht.com.au) have an anecdotally accurate stock/availability
indication on their website. I say anecdotally because it has never
failed me personally in the years I've bought stuff from them online.
They are nationwide, but again, given the smaller number of outlets
than a similar chain in the USA might face, it may not be a fair
comparison.
