i think the proper thing to do would be to tell the customer to ship it to scl himself
i will ship any piece away for a customer if thats what he wants
even if it wasnt purchase from me or even a product we carry
i tell him he can ship it and give him the address
or offer to ship it for him with shipping paid up front
i look at it as giving customer service
its the company or distributor that warrantys the factory warranty not the store

I have worked at Visions for over 2 years and we haven't carried MTX during that time. We used to but any warranty that sub may have had is long over and most likely an MTX contact would be easier to come by from a current authorized dealer.

The sales rep at Visions should have done an online search for the nearest authorized dealer (if he didn't already know of one ....ie F.S.).

My experience is that in Canada it is hard to get brand name car audio and sell it on the net. In the USA manufacturers are way more relaxed about it. I know Rockford Fosgate cannot be sold on the internet in Canada, but in the US it can be. I don't know of any scummy canadian sites that are doing what you are complaining about. There are lots in the US but the US is a different market.
