Not at this time, RCCS is a home-office company and does not have a storefront or an inventory of new items. This has a more positive than negative effect on the end user. The positive is that the end user will be purchasing the latest in technology and not something that has been sitting on the shelf for a month or more. The negative, while rare, is there may be some down time in the shipping process.
