Pioneer Consumer Electronics has a MAP policy in effect on all consumer
sound systems, and various other consumer products. This means that a Pioneer Authorized retailer
is not allowed to advertise a price below the MAP price. Although
we sell unit below MAP pricing, in order to maintain our Authorized
Retailer Status we are not allowed to post this price.
Should
you visit a site that advertises a price below MAP (see below)
they are not an Authorized Retailer and are not getting the product
through proper channels . This will affect your rebate status
and possible your warranty. The origin of the product may also be
in question. ( B stock, Gray market etc)
Pioneer
Electronics has put these policies in place to protect you, the
consumer, from dealers who have no knowledge of the products, provide
no support and in some cases misrepresent the product availability
and history.
