My local Journe AD said they only allow customers with a history to buy a Journe and since Journe is cutting them off soon I see no good reason to start one.
I guess there’s nothing to do other than contact a boutique and see what they say.

This is a conundrum I am dealing with. I have two Journes (a CB and a CO) and both were purchased second hand (since you obviously can't get them). Before buying the CO, I inquired about purchasing a CO from a boutique and the wait was about 2 years (maybe sooner). I decided to buy a CO now, enjoy it, and sell it when the new one I am on the list for arrives and thus "building the relationship."

May be stupid, but I don't think I am going to take a bloodbath (famous last words)... and I get to enjoy the CO while I wait.
