This is an incredibly high end audio product that my company sells. It is very expensive and hand made in the only factory left in Binghamton, NY. They employ about 300 or so locals.
The Chinese line up at this new store to purchase these luxury US made amplifiers etc.
It is possible.

Denver just lost a great local brewery too. Too much competition, even here where everyone drinks and supports local beers.

Hopefully they aren't buying it to break it down so they can copy it and sell it on the cheap.

Not likely, they have been flying to California dealers and buying it to bring back for years now.
