He wants to keep the same profit margin, so he raises or lowers the retail price accordingly. << Hello Marvin, My Leica rep told me about a week or so ago that the $500 rebate has been extended through December 31, 1997. Personally, I am not sure that the rebate is due to the drop in the value of the DM vs. the US Dollar. Because if this was true, Leica would also be offering this or a similar rebate in the UK where the DM has also dropped vs. the Pound Sterling...which they are not doing. Best regards, Bill Erfurth >>
