A good working relationship with a knowledgeable authorized Leica dealer is extremely important. This relationship is something that, if nurtured with mutual respect, becomes a win win situation. It cannot be just one way. My relationship with my local dealer is extremely important to me. I would not jeopardize it under any circumstances. Especially just to save a few bucks. It's not the cash, it's the total value. You truly win in the long run. Jim
