Just a couple of points that I have discovered.
1. The $599 is the MSRP and Hififarm is intentionally keeping it at the MSRP for a reason. The street price will be probably in the area of $549 but could even dip to roughly $500 depending on one's negotiating skills with a particular store. The days of $350 or even $400 are history.
2. Any person buying in the US will have to purchase from an authorised distributor of Sanibel. Totallywired in New Zealand for example or any other foreign sales offices will not be able to sell to anyone in the US. Territories are being clearly demarcated and someone say in Canada could not buy from the US either (that is the territory of the Canadian distributor and their authorised resellers). There is going to be a far stronger brick and mortar presence and far less of an internet sales presence.
