Wait, I am confused?!?! There is no stock now, and the new versions will not be available until November of NEXT YEAR?

Basically, you got it. I was able to snag one from Concept in Calgary about a month ago -- he had 5 left at that time. Call him up, those might be all of them remaining. (and likely anyone who has one, will not part with it )

concepts have stock left last time I checked, but we have stopped production of the current model due to market changes moving to DC inverted pumps. This sort of re design takes time.

I know these are hot property and probably one of the best skimmers on the market but we have to move with the times

New model we hope will be spring 2014, not sure where you are getting November from.

I understand that things change. At the same time I am not willing to buy a product that is already discontinued and has nothing to replace it for over a year. What do I do for support in the mean time?

I am not sure what the argument here is?

if you are not willing to buy the highly respected original unit then dont, consumer choice

What do you do about support? Contact me, why would that change?

I want to buy it but if it is discontinued, what do I do if the pump fails in 90 days, or there is a crack in the volute or ???
