Hello All,
After researching possible receivers to buy, I had narrowed my choice down to the Yamaha RX-Z9. I was in the process of looking for on-line retailers, to find the best price, and found that the authorized dealers that carry the RX-Z9 can't ship the receiver out of their local area. On top of that Yamaha won't honor their warranty if the product is not purchased from an authorized dealer.:frowning:
My question to you on the forum is why would a manufacturer place such a restricion on their products? The logic doesn't make sense to me that they would limit their and the resellers market. I have emailed Yamaha, but have not received a response. If anyone could shed some light on this subject I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks,
Robert
