<<Rich... I think the question about the Leica Day was.... that dealers in the

geographic area are all allowed to sell at the 10% off, even if they

specifically are not haveing the event.  Is this true?


Example... Tamarkin has a LEica Day, 10% off.  Can B+H, because they are

down the street,  also offer the same 10% off ON THAT DAY?

In a word...NO. 

That is unless THEY are giving off 10%...Leica will not fund it however.

Often, if someone local is having a demo day...it seems some dealers who have 
generous terms such as B&H etc. will try their best to match the price so as 
not too lose the business to another store, even if it means taking a loss on 
one item. I never really saw the sense in this...so I don't do it...but I 
have heard of it being done!

cheers,
rich
