I don’t see the issue here. He tried getting him at a bargain and it didn’t work. Nothing wrong with asking for a discount. You don’t get uber rich by paying full retail for everything.

Problem is, the guys with the huge markup are the high volume dealers who take all the wholesale offered and then some from the factory. The factory knows of the markup but their not going to bite the hand that feeds them. Anytime the region can’t hit their wholesale number to dealers they call the high volume guys…
