Hey guys,

So I'm in for my first Breitling purchase. Fell in love with the Super Avenger and I just got to have it. Went to a local AD today and talked to a lady there. She said they could do 17% off with cash/check and 15% off with card.

Some friends have told me they've gotten over 20% off, but they are out of state so not really an option for me. You think if I walk in with a check for $3500 they will take it? She told me $4059 out the door with the pro2 bracelet. What if I bought 2? What kind of discount should I go for?

Appreciate any responses and can't wait to become a Breitling owner!

I usually check online shops to see what thier prices are, as they have the least markup, then add a couple hundred to that for a retail shop. If you bought 2 at the same time, I'd expect at least another 5% discount on each

There are literally hundreds of threads on discounts on here.

Send jnelson3097 and he will give you contact details for a US AD who can help you out.

If you told us where you lived, that might help.

If you walk in with a check for $3500 will she take it? Only she knows that. Walk in and try it. What's the worse she can say, "No!"? Yeah, like none of us have ever had a woman say no to us before. :mrgreen:

Or have a man say no (depending upon your sex and/or sexual orientation).

I definitely agree! I usually check on this website the quotation of the watch (the recommended retail price) http://www.thewatchquote.com/Breitling-557-PdN.htm, you shouldn't pay more than that. e.g. in this case they say 3225euro which is 4600$. that's the most. then I look for the watch on online stores. and in this case they sell for 3295 and I know that is the lowest price reachable.
then I look for a price in between as low as possible ;)

I hope this will be helpful!

regards

Hi,

I am on business in Dubai and just picked up the Airwolf for AED 12480 (£2070) the UK list price is £3130. A huge saving! Needless to say I bought it then and there.

I should also say that it was 20% off the list price in the store and it was an authorized dealer (I checked the Breitling website on my iPhone).
