What is the average dealer mark up?

What is an "average" mark up on quality or high end audio gear? I realize that there are many manufacturers who force dealers to hold this tight and not disclose, but surely without naming specific manufacturers there are some here that do in fact know the mark up.

Let the fun begin!

The one dealer who was willing to talk about this, was always talking about 50 points.  Sounds great... if you were making several big sales each and every day, but that's obviously not what happened in most small shops.  When anybody was in the store at all, it was most tire-kickers.
