Also, you got to play the guitar that you are looking at. No matter who you buy from online you will not have that same opportunity.

THe real question IMHO becomes was the 30 minutes the salesperson spent with you worth say 800 dollars an hour? It would be in my opinion if he made that from your purchase of the guitar, but in reality whether you buy the guitar from him or not will not make or break his day and he for sure wont make the money you will save.
Follow your wallet, and be sure to buy somewhere that has an excellent return policy and a lifetime 100% buyback program.
