The dealers are feeding you a lot of BS if you believe them. I purchased my machine at a dealer's shop. They tried telling me the same thing. I saw the exact same machine at Wallyworld and had the exact same attachments and accessories. They all come from the same factory with the same warranties as long as the repairs are under warranty and repaired by the expert.
