This question is simply due to my own curiousity. If certain online retailers are non authorized dealers, where do they get their inventory from? Are some not considered authorized because they sell items below the manufacturers predetermined price? Ie. The Akona backback varies from mid $20's to over $40 depending on who you buy it from. I would assume the dealers all buy directly from the company, but is what makes them "authorized" based at least somewhat on what they charge? I would assume they all would pay a similar price when they buy them (based on volume) but why can some sell it much much cheaper?
