R&A, I never had a problem with them but I have no idea how they are making money.
They are in the import/export business. Just happens that the goods are bicycles

Apparently a lot of sales to Latin American countries without an authorized supplier. Probably can get close to MSRP on those sales

The sales staff is hit or miss. Have a friend who had a less than pleasant time at the store (salesperson used some rather graphic languages to describe the bike) and ended up driving across the river to Strictly instead.
