There Are Pandas, and Then There Are Pandas.
And this isn't either of them! The Pandas we're talking about here, are watches, not bears. And what got me thinking about them (again) was a link posted this morning by @cm.rook who pointed a few of us to the very attractive (and not terribly priced) Yema "Rallygraph" Panda which, in it's most traditional arrangement, looks like the one on the left, but can also be had in the version on the right: The model on the left is a true Panda, while the model on the right is called a reverse Panda. The reason for that distinction is clear--Panda bears, only come in the first arrangement. Now at this point, everyone should be thinking about the most well-know Panda, The Rolex Panda, which is actually a Daytona, and among Rolex Daytonas, the most famous of which is the Paul Newman Daytona, which was famous first, because it was Paul's, and second because it sold at auction for $17.8 million (US Dollars).

Many valid points, but I don't think everyone shops the same way as you. I have a few builds around the house for my work, gaming, and wife's computer, and have definitely gotten on a few deals when I see them that I wasn't planning on.
Maybe if you wanted to do all the like EK waterblock stuff - but that is even more enthusiast and not generalist like what you need to actually sell things. So I dunno. I see this idea and I think to myself - the people at Mass Drop already had this debate 1000 times and came to the conclusion there is simply 'too much' to have to do there or that it just waters down the idea of what is going on at mass drop. The only reason I am here is because they are doing some exclusive shopping on my behalf. Water that down and peace out.
