Just wanted to check as your stir package (antenna and R/G unit) is $499, with the R/G unit costing $90. But you can buy the 9500ci antenna for $399 from Escort?Quote:

Then we need to make some sort of profit or why bother selling it and warrantying it ourselves because Escort will not warranty the head if purchased directly and not used in a 9500CI unit. There are lots of costs involved that you just do not realize when you look at one figure.Quote:

Not sure if the very old ones did but all the recent ones definitely supported TSR. Don't remember when Escort added TSR to the 9500ci's. I know the original Sti-R Originals did not have it but it was added later on.Quote:

Why the sarcasm? If someone in your own country steps up to that plate great but why the sarcasm towards us for being a US Dealer and abiding by our dealer contracts to only ship in our territory?Quote:

Alex at kmph is great for service and support, but his prices are really, really high unfortunately.
And I would have no issue servicing you guys but its not the cards I was dealt. I have contracts with the manufactures and I have to abide by those contracts so my hands are tied. If anyone has any questions on this subject they can contact me to discuss but there is no need to be sarcastic towards us for doing what we are allowed to do in the country that we reside.Quote:

2. Equally important, he's a man of honor and is ethical in all his business dealings (customers, other distributors, and even competitors). This should be respected by everyone here. Tom's integrity means far more to me personally than any discounts he's given me, appreciated as they are.
Really wish we had a guy like Tom here in Canada. We get screwed over royally on prices for all CM's.
