Default Vanson leathers source

Anyone know of a good source for Vanson leathers that&nbsp\\;sells for&nbsp\\;less than MSRP?

The factory is on Broadway in Fall River, MA.&nbsp\\; I drive by it to and from work every day.&nbsp\\; I believe they a have a store where you can get fitted and buy direct.

I've been collecting Vanson jackets over the years.&nbsp\\; I think I have 7 of them now and one for my girlfriend.&nbsp\\; I bought each one of them, second hand, on Ebay.&nbsp\\; If you are patient, just about every model eventually comes available there.&nbsp\\; I've even bought 2 horsehide models on there.&nbsp\\; I wouldn't think twice about buying them second hand either.&nbsp\\; If you know the product, you know they last for generations.&nbsp\\; Hell, I have a 10 year old Comet that is barely broken in and I wear it all the time.&nbsp\\; Yu can also try Motorcycle Leather Exchange.&nbsp\\; They carry mostly the sportbike models, but do carry a pre-owned inventory.

I bought several vanson jackets online from NewEnough and they used to have a lot of Vanson stuff they bought on store closings etc, but I have not seen Vanson stuff offered for some months now.&nbsp\\; They are a great bike product vendor for many other things as well.&nbsp\\; I would call them and if they no longer deal in for some reason, they will probably refer you somewhere.&nbsp\\; I think if I put website address here it will get edited out by admr so hint is that company name plus usual ending is the address.&nbsp\\; Good luck, Vanson is awesome.
&nbsp\\;
PSI have Vanson perforated Mark some# I cannot remember and it is very awesome heavy leather but so many holes that I can even wear it through humid Virginia summers.&nbsp\\; I wear a windproof backpacking pullover under it in chilly weather that is less bulky than stock liner.
