Some times retailers are at the mercy of the manufacturers when it comes to deals like this. I know I carry a few lines (not wood working or tool related) that will only allow me to advertize sales when the supplier permits; and only by very specific guidelines. If I fail to comply they have the contractural right to fine me at least $10,000 per day and drop me as a vender and can go so far as to shut down my store. European manufacturer, by the way. I’d be willing to bet Festool is like this.
