That's the niche-marketing psychology..."I sought out this brand that you can only get through this certain channel, you can't buy it in a store, I have to order it special, they only make it on every other Thursday, shhh everyone will want it, of course it's the best". Not saying those aren't good products, but maintaining a certain "mystique" is good for business, yo? Or how about this one "I called up and got to talk to the OWNER, dude!" No one calls Meg's and has Barry answer the phone...these people have close personal relationships with Sal, Poorboy Steve, Jeff, etc....you're talking about their friend, man!
