Hi guys - had a quick scroll around the topics - assume it is common knowledge that the dreaded Maxwell's are selling out to Nikon in Australia??

Feldy, what do you mean by "selling out"?

On October 1 Maxwell lost the Oz distributorship of Nikon, that being taken over in November by Nikon Australia.

Maxwells as we knew it have changed, but are still distributing stuff like Lowepro bags ...

I'm wondering if, in your use of the term "selling out", you're suggesting something deeper?
