Do Thiel dealers discount?

I have decided to buy new thiel cs3.7 speaker to replace my old dynaudio.
Crutchfield sells this speaker at facory suggested price.
Also there is a Thiel dealer at one hour driving distance from my house.
Is it worth to visit them expecting to get a discount?
It is unusual that an online megastore sells high-end audio equipments, which makes me not to sure about discounts which we can usually expect from high end audio dealers.

Since you are asking for recommendations, I would recommend the PSB Synchrony One. I compared it to an 802 and found it similar, but with a less hot treble, which I found a little irritating on the 802.

The Bryston wouldn't be my first choice. I'd suggest big Pass or Krell.

I have found that discounting is dependent on the specific product (the margin the dealer gets, the policies of the manufacturer/distributor--some tightly control prices), the type/policy of the retail establishment, and primarily, by the kind of relationship I have with the dealer. Those dealers that I buy a lot from, almost always include a discount, and I NEVER even ask about a discount--they just include it in the price.

Thiel and Bryston sound great. Congratulations on the 3.7's. I think they are pretty damn amazing. Great choice. I use Bryston with SCS4's, wish I could find the space for 3.7's.
