$$ for SDDS?

OK, question...

Knowing all ADs have a different squirl factor so discounts will be vastly different but...

What SHOULD one pay for a SDDS, ballpark in the U.S.?

Thanks,

Sparky

From an AD expect up to a 10% discount from MSRP. Check/PM Oscar (Bodybump), a trusted seller in this forum. You will save a few hundred dollars, with a new or used DS.

Thanks,

My AD MIGHT do a little better since I have a 3 watch history in the last 3 years with him but that was about the ballpark I was thinking!

Went to my "new" AD today (my old one closed, but ironically have the same salesman) and was told that there was no discount (my guy was off today). I knew better, especially in this market, so I did not argue. I handed it back and left. I'll try again when he is there! Do these girls think I'm stupid? They know I bought 3 watches (and I was wearing my TT GMT-IIc) from him at the old place in the last 18 months! This place has that "rep" so I should have expected it! Thanks for the numbers... Good ammunition!

Thanks,
Sparky

Spencer, you should be able to get a 10% discount for that watch from a Rolex AD. But if you have a good relationship and a history with an AD, they might give you more off.

Thanks, Richard. I do have a previous relationship with this guy but at a different store. My 116713 came at ~20% so I think I can split the difference and maybe hit 15%. Here's hoping!

Thanks,

Spencer
