Local pickup is fairly rare as a shipping option here, many sellers do this out
of their house rather than a storefront and they understandably prefer to not
have strangers showing up randomly, plus arranging and showing up to a meetup
takes time that could be spent packing orders (especially for larger stores).
There is no search function on the site that can find those rare few allowing
pickup, and it's unlikely that those few will (1) be in your area and (2)
read the forum regularly. And to top all that off, you'll face drastically
lower parts availability if you limit yourself to sellers in a single city (particularly
sellers in a single city that offer pickup, consider yourself very lucky if there's
more than one).
