I think "carton dispensers" are great if you know exactly what you want and don't have a need for store advice nor a desire to pay $$ for a retailers brand label stuck onto the goods.
However for a beginner who doesnt have access to a friend who knows their stuff I would recommend they buy from a dealer with expertise.
