I'd like to know how. The numbers I heard yesterday weren't economically viable, and a big US distribution house wasn't able to strike a deal. Too much for too many.
Do you have better info on the future of the Curare ARF? Producers have come to their senses?
Chris...
Chris, are you talking about the Austrian Curare ARF's to come or Rusty's purchase of the Sunshine kits?
If the former, apparently there will be some sort of US dealership. Details are in the appropriate threads. The price might be reduced for the US market to make them "marketable" but also because the transportation costs should in principle be less once QC is under control. On the other hand, it's a smaller outfit (compared to the US giants) that is putting these ARF's together so they might just want to keep things under control and sell directly - no NA dealership. Sebastiano Silvestri, although much more prolific kit wise, has a similar situation. The US dealership was/is always questionable. I think things are a little better now.
If you are referring to Rusty's purchase, well, you might know that coin is not a source of concern... or so I've come to understand.
