Choose supplier for Brother DCP7065DN printer

I need to replace my home laser printer. Using web search I have chosen Brother DCP7065DN printer/scanner for linux compatibility, features, price [1]. Also its print/scan is reported to work with arch linux [2]. But I'm not sure where to buy it. I live on a rural property near Wodonga. So is important to me to select a vendor that actually has stock, and good remote-customer service, eg for any warranty issues. www.myshopping.com.au shows [3] numerous vendors in the range $180-$280 plus freight. (the RRP is $298). Many of the cheaper vendors there have negative reviews. With only that info, I am considering tammex.com.au which has no bad reviews there, but they are all from 2009. I can't find any later comment on the web. Question: Does anyone have good/bad experience with Tammex or other online vendor? Alternatively, I could drive to Melbourne for personal pickup from a vendor with stock and good customer service. Feel free to reply off list if you prefer. Thanks. ----------------------------- [1] features and price: - monochrome laser printer A4 - duplex capable - scanner - copier - usb - ethernet - < $300 - linux printer driver available from Brother [4] - linux scanner driver available from Brother [5] [2] https://bleedux.wordpress.com/2011/08/01/brother-dcp-7065dn-receiving-data-b...
