If it goes over 2k not interested. So many rifles in the caliber to choose from

Well, in all fairness, Can Am could still come up with the lowest regular selling price once the dealer price is set by M+M. This assumes that M+M does not set and insist upon adherence to a Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) in order to level the playing field after the pre-sale fiasco. That would thwart Can Am's lowest price plan....

I think a price increase at this point would sour a lot of potential customers. I was wanting to put through my preorder last night but amidst all the drama I hesitated and now it looks as if the price will likely increase. I'm glad to hear that these are approved etc but frankly not in the least bit impressed with what has transpired thus far. I think if M+M was smart they would keep the price fair in order to move quantity in hopes to develop a long lasting relationship with the Canadian consumer. Communication is an asset in these types of situations and not having clearly definined terms of distribution, production and most importantly price seems pretty unprofessional. I'm not sure who jumped the gun here but it's a bit disheartening to get teased with an affordable, NR assault style rifle on the Canadian market, to then have drama and disorganization potentially ruin it. Not trying to be negative but this one stings. My advice is to keep the price at $1449 and sell a ton of them! M+M needs to focus on the long game and Wainstalls needs some serious damage control for the rest of us that are interested in buying.
Interesting to see how this will turn out.
