When I asked the one and only local dealer for a price on the A590 last
weekend he said that both of the ones he had sold so far had come in
defective and that therefore he was not interested in selling another one.

If mail-order is out (and I do agree with Commodore's intent here) where does
that leave me and the rest of the Amiga users around here?
