That’s so sad to hear Ken, my sympathy goes out to her friends and family and to you of course. Hopefully you’re wrong but it sounds unlikely. Sorry to hear the business is closing, my wife will be sad too but my pocket not so much! Take care and thanks for the years of hard work

Seek out the trusted dealers on here. As @thegrail has said trusty time is a good dealer. Just make sure you use the dealers website as listed on the forum as there are, believe it or not, rouge/fake dealers who copy reputable rep dealers where you will get scammed.
