Re: Buying a new Monster, did you get a deal?
your friend can get a lower price on any new bike as long as he knows how to negociate.
- don't look too intrested, make them push for a sale, tell them that you are shopping aroun a lot
- don't buy anything before the third visit at least
- wait for them to ask for your phone number and once they call you know you're on your way to a better price
- when you agree to sit down for a price, don't smile and look too eager. make them sweat and wonder why they're not getting a big grin out of you.
- once they make the first offer, say you'll think about it, get up and leave. make them beg... they all do.
i'm no expert but this seems to have worked in my favor for the last few bikes, cars and condo i have bought.
at Monette Sports they seem to have the attitude that discourages people to act this strategy out from the start but, so far, i know three people who have used it right. two of them being members of this club.
also, tell your friend that he is welcome to join the next club meeting on July 4th if he wants to discuss some of that and the bikes [thumbsup]
