The price is good but just an FYI Abes is a grey market seller. The warranty will be through them.

I always wondered why their prices are always massively below MSRP.

Abe's is also a upsell scam site. There used to be a respectable company by the same name that went bankrupt and a NYC scam operator took over. If you don't buy their "extras" when they reach out after sale you likely will get your order cancelled.

Abes is not reputable anymore, there was a respected store by the same name that went out of business, the current owners bought the IP and started selling a upsell/bait and switch type grey market operation on the same site. I highly advise against buying from them.
