Re- card shops its funny you say that. I've experienced the same, but am always curious to poke my head in and look. If it's a pleasant experience, I usually by an old Topps wax pack for the time, and enjoy munching on 25 year old gum. However, I go up to AK quite a bit as well, and found a few shops in Anchorage that were selling stuff a similar to eBay prices. I loaded up on some nice 60's-70's cards (including some really nice '69 Topps Basketball) and a Willie Mays signed ball for a lot less than would be expected. They didn't have any prewar stuff though.
Will send PM w/ my number.. and sounds like David is very close by as well. I usually stay right near down town.
