Thank you. I am looking forward to your input. You're most welcome. It is a great pleasure. Thank you for your input. Much appreciated. :) [B]Shipping Time[/B] The idea was not to say that dealers are 100% responsible for shipping time, but rather to give potential buyers an indication of how long it might take to be delivered.
