Absolutely agreed :rage: It also seems to me that the companies who police for MAP rabidly do make very good lights but otherwise have nothing else to offer, and you can almost always buy better lights for the prices they artificially maintain. I will never buy anything from any company that has a strict MAP policy. That is my personal policy, YMMV.
And often it’s us who destroy below-MAP deals by openly mentioning prices when instructed to not do that by the deal organizers :zipper_mouth_face: Bad things happen and it is up to each of us individually how we handle them. If you don’t learn something from any given experience, you’re not paying enough attention.
