Factory buying experiences?

[vinter]

Hi gang, yes the newbie is still here

I read that some of the italian factories are sometimes willing to sell directly to consumers. (maybe if physically stopping by a factory outlet?) I read examples of Euro2000 machines - but maybe other factories have been known to do so?

Please share your experiences - good or bad. (I could imagine the warranty part can be a little tricky)

(please PM, me if this is a controversial topic)

Thanks in advance!

As long as no-one says anything libellous then I'd prefer them to say whatever they want to say in this open forum, if that's OK?

If you're particularly concerned about something you want to say, either email me or (perhaps better) put it in the Clubroom so we can take a view on it.

Cheers

Phil
