Title: Local Shop Price Match?
Post by: beantownjjj on January 21, 2006, 07:32:28 PM
New to the forum and thinking of picking up an L-03R.  Just out of curiosity, has anyone ever had a local shop price match one of the bigger on-line outfits?

Thanks,

JJJ

Most price match deals are worthless due to MAP (Minimun advertised pricing)

I'm always willing to pay a little more for the services and peace of mind that my local shop offers.
I simplay ask "How close can you come and still maintain your necessary profit margin?"
If you have a good local shop, it's worth doing business that way.

Ha!  I tried that back in the 70's while shopping for a Guild 6-string.  The owner tossed me out!   :UND>
