Vista at least is paying for the orders they take..
Word in Dorval when I picked up our 5000 was that Vista was definitely not paying themselves... NJ are supposed to be cash buyers (which makes sense taking their shareholder into account..)
What I never understood is the reasoning beyond short term profits when a manufacturer sells to NJ.
Banks like long term buyers like NJ as it allows them to predict cash flow on future sales
They tend not to like our business as it is hard to predict when my boss wants to upgrade..
