Unfortunately, since Saitek bought out Mephisto back in 1991, the
importing of Mephisto product into the U.S. has practically dried
up.

We were the U.S. importer in most of the 1980's , and we brought
every single model in, but Saitek, for whatever reason, is not of that
philosophy.

Saitek, right now, is only importing the Atlanta and Exclusive VI,
and they do not seem to know if or when anything else will ever come
into the U.S. market. If you must have some other Mephisto model, you
will need to go to Germany.

We have a policy of carrying everything that chess computer
companies manufacture, but we prefer to stay within the guidelines
of the manufactures and not try to purchase gray market items that
may not get warranty service.
