HI Diablo Kid:

Thanks for showing off the new Bonanza here. I would like to clarify something however.... Its absolutely not the case that we sell to the consumer public BEFORE selling to our dealers. Everyone has an equal opportunity to back-order the models at the same time. It seems however that the general public is much faster at responsding to ads we place in the magazines. As such it may appear that we sell more to the public when in fact overall its totally not the case. Anyhow, any consumer can walk into their LHS and pre-order the model through them with us.

Just my "two sence" from the manufacturer's stand point. Yes of course it helps the bottom line to sell direct but in no way do we say no to dealers to save a sale to the consumer public.
