The manufacturer, the dealer, then me. Has it ever been serviced? No, it has not broken down yet. Maybe after I sell it. I know where people are coming from, but if an item is well cared for, who cares how many owners? If something has been serviced, does not mean it is a lemon. With high end gear, more times than not it means it is in better shape.

I cannot even count the number of times I have gotten a long list of general questions about a brand of audio gear and I tell them the information is available at: www.insert-company-name.com I would think this would be obvious to someone using the internet.
