So I wonder if they'll keep the DB guys on to build the blinds in their MN location and just slap a Primos label on the box?

DB blinds haven't been built in MN for over a yr and 1/2; going on two years. They are MADE IN CHINA; WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOPIE!!!!!!!! The DB BS5 was the last American built DB blind. They took their product to China to save operating costs, but never lowered the cost of the blind onto their customers. Go figure.
