Your statement may be generally true, or was before local dealers became a footnote to the Internet, but Music Direct has exceptional customer service. They have stock and apparently, the financial muscle to treat a customer right.
My Traveler was a Demo at a substantial discount and when the motor failed on Day Two, they immediately provided a prepaid return label and shipped a fresh replacement unit.
