Discount from AD?

Hey! I once again need your help:-)

I have decided to get a datejust 41 in rhodium with a fluted bezel and an oyster bracelet. Should I expect any discount on this model? I am buying from an AD.

I hope you can help!

It doesn't hurt to try, I wouldn't buy though without a discount.

Talked with AD for about three weeks ago, and he should be able to get it for me in about a month :-)

People posting about how to get a discount and how much to ask for is really annoying and silly. Why don't you speak up and ask the AD and find out on your own?? There are many aspects and variably taken into account to get a discount and if you are on a forum asking for help you clearly lack the most important one which is being confident, a good negotiator and speaking up. The forum members are not the ones selling the watch.

Extra annoying points to those that ask about grey sellers and even those that respond with suggestions compromising the position of trusted sellers that have been providing y'all with a steady stream of watches for many years and supporting the forum.

I couldn't agree more
These thread will be closed and consequences for those asking 'discount' questions.
No more threads asking:
prices or discounts.

You should not expect a discount. This should not discourage you from asking for one.
