I don't know if I'll go with a BD bike, but I can tell you that when I decide to pull the trigger on something new, what they have in stock will factor heavily into my decision.
This is a great way to use the newsletter
An example just came up; a supplier ask me to take the last few of a jumping bike
which instead of listing on the site as there are so few
we will just sell thru a newsletter post
this type of item that can go out without ever hitting the site will probably become more common
