#i dealt with them until they put a $3.5k limit on export orders. seems things at nsd started changing around spring '92. is that when your problems started?

I have dealt with Nationwide Sports in Sparks, NV.  I called their 1-800
number, got a very helpful sales person, placed my order, they said I would
get it in a week, and three days later UPS was knocking at my door.  The
only other dealer I have dealt with is Jerry's Sport Center and I find their
salespeople very rude and unwilling to help or answer any questions.  No big
loss because Nationwide Sports has better prices.
