Lowes?
Well, as been discussed before, where's the service angle coming from? We're supposed to be getting a Lowes in our area, maybe by the end of the year. It will be interesting to see what they offer compaired to the local hardware stores, sawshops and Wally World, both in products and prices. But still wonder about the quality and service they'll offer on certain products (Saws). The Husqvarna dealers are required to supply warrenty work on store bought saws, but feel that it may lead to problems and why wouldn't it? On a store bought saw being taken in for followup service, to me, would be a slap in the face to a regular dealer who has to try and make a living and maintain his overhead and deal with the pressure put on him by his supplier to sell their complete line. A person better be able to do their own work on the equipment they buy at discount prices. Course the size and quality of the saws may be that of the throw a way type of casual user home owner type stuff. Who know's. But it will be interesting to see what will be there. Guess it's good to try and expand your market, but feel that, like some of the saw companies that have gone under, no longer exist, that corperate greed and mismanagement will lead to an unpleasant demise of more companies, especially if the quality of their products appear to be inferior. Take care. Lewis.
