Tim,
If you and I were at a pub and this topic came up I'm sure we would both howl at the contrast between your situation and mine. You are receiving unsolicited emails from dealers who read your posts. I, on the other hand, emailed every dealer of a particular product line in the Pacific Northwest inquiring about upcoming puchases I planned to make. I received only one reply. Guess which one of these dealers eventuall got my business?
In my case I had already decided what I wanted. I just needed a retailer to buy the stuff from. These weren't small purchases either. Within a two month period I purchased a preamp, CD player, four amplifiers, eight pairs of interconnects and a pair of speakers.
I sympathize with you receiving junk email but am envious that dealers were making an effort to get your business.
Happy buying, uh, er, listening,
Patrick
