I believe Arc will sell you the product directly if you don't have a local dealer.

I e-mailed them, and they quoted me a shipped price for a pair of subwoofers since I don't have a local dealer.

Actually, it was amazing customer service. I e-mailed them in the middle of the day on a Sunday and received a response within 2 hours!

Did they charge you full retail tho? I have a local retailer thats authorized, I am just not willing to pay the price their asking, since sites usually give u 50-60% of the MSRP

Well, I don't know the MSRP of the subwoofers (since I don't have a dealer locally), but it was a pretty high quote for manufacturer direct IMO. So it's hard telling. My guess is that it was, at best, discounted by the shipping price (so that I wouldn't be paying any more than MSRP total).

Have you tried negotiating with them? I've never paid more than 70% of MSRP at my local dealers. If they know they're going to lose a sale to the internet, I'm sure they'll come down some. Frankly, IMHO, I think if they drop the price 20% it would be worth sticking with the dealer since you would retain the full factory warranty. Sure, you could possibly save another 20% by going on the 'net....but if it breaks in 6 months then you're going to wish you would have went with an authorized dealer.

E-mailed them today, and as long as there is no auth dealer within 50 miles, they will help you out. I don't know about the pricing though.
