RE: Will Lanier still be around
They undoubtedly bought Lanier to get Goldberg. There is no blowout sale on Goldberg products.
The problem with a blowout sale is that it uses up the market for those products. Everyone who wants one will buy it before the price goes back up. So if the price does go back up, there is no one left to buy it. Sellers know that.
I don't have any inside info either, but a blow out sale is a pretty sure sign that the present line of Lanier products is history.
