Where to buy Rotel products?


Why is it so hard to find a local Houston area Rotel dealer? I've been searching online also and every authorized dealer is over seas. Nothing in the U.S. There's nothing on EBay either but older used equipment. Nothing new from their current product line. I'm looking to purchase a RCD 1572 cdp and a RT 1570 tuner and digital gateway to match my RA 1570 integrated. Anyone know of a dealer in Houston, besides Best Buy since they are consistently over priced from MSRP, or an online dealer that's located in the continental U.S.?
Thanks

Magnolia Audio Video sells Rotel and they always have Rotel 2ch gears on display paired with B&W speakers. 
B&W Group distributes Rotel products. You won't find Rotel products sold online eg Amazon, Crutchfield, Music Direct, etc.

Audio Video Logic carries Rotel. If you don’t have a local dealer they will work with you.

Thank you!  I'll look them up.

Oh, Rotel prohibits on line sales.

I didn't know that. Wonder why? They're limiting their sales especially since there aren't many dealers to begin with.

Magnolia is part of Best Buy. That's the only dealer that shows up when I search online. I've looked at their inventory and the items I'm searching for don't show up. They offer a RCD 1570 which is last years slot load model cdp and their price on that player is $100 over MSRP. I've found some dealers over seas in Australia and New Zealand that offer online sales and are priced accordingly but really didn't want to buy over seas.
