Do Dealers think it is sinful..........

3chihuahuas: Send me your "want list" and I'll see if I can get you a discount. I can absolutely assure you that, should any of your goodies be available where I shop, you'll get way more than 6% off. In fact, the 6% you get from your "salesman" is pathetic, even embarassing. It wouldn't even cover sales tax where I live. BTW, I am not an audio dealer. If you email me your "wants," you should be able to afford to buy with credit card or cash immediately. Otherwise, please don't bother. rosebud_2884@hotmail.com.

Jtinn, Echo Hifi is indeed the used equip great store in Portland that I deal with regularly. Great people with great service. Go Kurt & Jim !

hello rosebud, this is avnut. i posted a thread on audiogon about dealers and discounts. you mentioned to another poster,3chihuahuas, that he could give you a "want list" if he was prepared to pony up the cash asap. i wondered if you could extend that invitation to me? i am in the market but wont buy until after i return from ces in vegas. the brands i am looking into are classe,mbl,and dodson, transparent and cardas. please let me know. thanks again. harold

I’ve gotten a discount maybe 50% of the time....usually only 5 to 10% max.....some products prevent the dealer from discounting....the price is the price. 

Never have a problem all my dealers cut me  a deal.
