In their February 13th update, they removed 86 authorized dealers, nearly 20% of their network. This is one of the largest mass-removals we’ve seen.
Notable removals include military exchanges (Army and Air Force Exchange Service, Coast Guard Exchange, and others) selling at a discount to US military personnel, camera broker KEH (which used to sell new Canon items alongside their used inventory), and eBay dealers Datavision and Profeel. California and New York state saw the largest reduction in dealers, with 15 and 11 removed respectively.
Move is aimed to destroy smaller stores and help Amazon and big guys.
