but if you are talking about the retailers and the distributers together then what ODH said is pretty much right..
Black Diamond changing to go through S2S is unfortunately the exception not the rule (and how long were they just going through OutdoorAgs for?). Name for me for example other shops in Sydney that stock this particular model of shoes I was looking at, LaSportiva Katanas. ..and thats why they stick them on the shelf for $250 now.
