Even though I got a second rangefinder at dealer cost (the guy was selling out his Leica inventory), I still felt a little queasy doing so, because it was still very expensive.

Your operation sounds a WHOLE lot better than the "best" Pro store here in Cleveland, Ohio, where two listmembers, at my suggestion, bought two 50mm Summilux ASPH's, I bought an MP, 35mm 'lux, 90mm, cron AA, and so forth and have YET to restock ANY of it.
