If you guys want to discuss importing Festool products to US, bypassing their distribution network, or circumventing fixed price policy, then do it privately, and not on Festool owned and run forum. Let the recent story with one of the UK distributors be a lesson.
Do you have a link to that story- was it posted here on FOG? [blink]
Somewhere between the computer systems and employees at the order fulfillment center, Axminster was mistakingly shipping
orders outside of the regional boundaries that they were contractually obligated to recognize.
It's interesting to observe that no one is presuming that Axminster has google alerts set up, found out about the situation and said, "oh nose" and fixed their problem without Festool's intervention. :0
