I can't find the link, but you can Google it to see how they screwed the US distributor after over ten years of doing business together I believe it was.

Again, I'm sorry as I'm not trying to be a jerk, but personally when I do business with say a Vandersteen dealer, I know they won't screw me and I know that the value of my purchase will stay strong til the day I have to or want to sell..

Thanks for reading and feel free to flame me, but I did check with this story with a close friend in the industry, who's name would be well known and they said this is true. Thanks again.

I know about that story. There is always another side of a story like that and it's about another point of view about how this is. I don't think it's a good idea to take part of that. A consumer should not take part of it and with second hand information feed a story that probably has more to it than we really can know.
