What we did was to have reps. from each company come in and meet with us. We chose Baldwin because there were no fees or purchase requirements. Plus we already had a great relationship with that dealer. We have had this arrangement for four years now and it has been working very well. I don't know how much longer it will last though. We are in a remote area and their sales are less each year. I suggest that you call around and try something like we did. chris -Christopher D. Purdy R.P.T.
