In other words, how much did you pay for these items, or for other items, when you got them last time?

There are probably many of us out here who could sell this to you (I could), but this is not really the forum for that...

Have you checked the phone book for installers and called them? If you are a dealer, have you contacted Xantech for a local distributor?

EBecker or EBay'er? That is the question

I think I have both of those items in my bread drawer if you really need them quick, I'm kind of a collector (saving for a rainy day). [email protected] Of course all of those 68+ IR data are built in to the DD software you know (??)

Again, is he an end user or an installer? Can he buy from a distributor, or from an installer?

1. It's clear he represented himself as in the industry by his wording.

2. A quick look at the E-mail address under his profile confirms it.

3. And, since he is in the industry, he knows he can call Xantech and ask them who distributes in his area. And he has Xantech's phone number. Or an instruction sheet with the phone number. Or the ganas to enter "Xantech" in a google search.

I read what he wrote and assumed that he did not know how to source items. Sorry.

Ah, I see the source of my confusion. It looks at first as though that vendor is no longer carrying Xantech at all, then turns out that those particular items are not in stock. This is different from "no longer carrying them."

You might just be stuck unless you can call the Xantech sales department and tell them you need them ASAP and can they please figure out a way to look up who they sold some to lately... It also could be that the two week lead time is a figure quoted to your local guys by Xantech, which is double the reason to ask Xantech if they have a clue who might have stock.

Xantech ships direct to dealer usually same/next day. I ordered a bunch of crap on friday and they shipped it this afternoon. Ponder your options.
