Not sure if this is the right thread or not.....
I'm talking to a LBS and plan to purchase a new DH bike and AM bike at the same time. Paying in cash. The owner of the shop said he can give me 5% off (off retail) each bike if I buy them at the same time with cash. It comes out to about $700 off the total price which means I would still be paying over 13k in cash. Then add 1k for state tax.
Are the wholesale prices of bikes so high that he cant give me a better deal or what? Am I expecting too much to get a better discount considering I'm about to drop 13k with this guy?
The bikes are Pivot 5.7 XTR Ultralite and Pivot Phoenix XO build
