Legendary auto interiors

The reason that parts bought direct from the manufacturer cost more than the same items purchased from a distributor, is that the manufacturer sells retail at the list price while distributors can pass along part of the discount that they receive when purchasing wholesale.
This preserves the multi-layered distribution system that most manufacturers depend on to stay in business.
BTW, I have purchased Legendary products both direct and from Dante's and been pleased with the quality and service every time.
