just to add some input to the matter...
personally, i don't really care if it's an ansons, ambassador, abenson etc..
as long as they deliver for free, no damage, gives the best prices and most importantly the warranty of their product can be attained directly with manufacturer!!
in the end, they are all retail stores and the quality of service they provide is as random as the sales person and manager on shift attending to you that particular day. granted anson's and abenson have a more "dependable" after sales history in my book... but, ideally 90% of the time you would be dealing with the manufacturer for warranty related concerns.
