If you go with products which may need some service or updates from time to time (like a Beosystem 3 in a BV7, 9 or BV4) you need a supportive dealer! Or when it comes down to link B&amp;amp;O products, attach 3rd party ones you may need a helping hand as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Karsten&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Is is possible to haggle discounts?</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/38603.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Aug 2007 04:53:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:38603</guid><dc:creator>Tom</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/38603.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=38603</wfw:commentRss><description>over here, most dealers give you some % if you ask for, especially if you pay before delivery or if you buy some of the more expensive products. But tobeyone is right when saying that the passion for B&amp;amp;O lasts for all of your life, so it is important to find a dealer you get along very good, so the price is not the most important thing to ask for.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Is is possible to haggle discounts?</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/38524.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 13 Aug 2007 16:14:57 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:38524</guid><dc:creator>tobeyone</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/38524.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=38524</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Also remember it&amp;#39;s not just all about the price. If you can build a good relationship with a good dealer (and get a good price) then the future should be set for later purchases/support etc. So find someone you can really get on with and build from there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Is is possible to haggle discounts?</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/38511.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 13 Aug 2007 15:25:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:38511</guid><dc:creator>9 LEE</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/38511.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=38511</wfw:commentRss><description>Try 2 or 3 dealers in your locality (Dealer section on the main site), and see who comes up with the best discount.&amp;nbsp; Once you have the best discount, call the other 2 dealers and see if they want to beat it.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br class="khtml-block-placeholder" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After that, make your choice depending on who can offer the best deal.&amp;nbsp; Remeber they have to make a profit, as well as you wanting a good deal.

I bought in the US a pair of BL3 and BL2 and got few % off when I asked if they would make me a package deal, initially I had only looked at the BL3.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good luck.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;JK&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
