the world will use them up as fast as they come and really don't care
if
they go because the parent company is getting the contracts that are
being
sold and they don't care where they come from and that is really all

While I rarely post, I just couldn't pass up commenting on this. Bob, I
think you're painting with too broad a brush here. I've been a
Monitronics dealer since 1999, and the dealer program is better than
it's ever been. While I will agree that there are dealers in every
organization that are less than desirable, your insinuation that this
is the rule, rather than the exception for Monitronics, is flat wrong.

I currently have only one salesman that door knocks, but his customers
are some of the most satisfied we have. He gets many referals and never
have I had to deal with a customer who believed he got less than he
paid for. Granted, we charge far less than the $42 quoted this OP, but
that's the free market.
