HEAVY DISCOUNTS??
Hi All,
Is there any site or company where you can get incredible discounts or prices on Viking or Thermador appliances. I have noticed at the retail level, just forget it unless they are ready to empty the store for new equipment then they get down to the "real price"! My sister got a Thermador range for nearly $3-4K off of Ebay believe it or not w/ no issues. I haven't been able to find anything else or know where else do go. That person still made $ so there has to be a bottom line. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. THANKS! |

Many factories give a discount to the retailer for the display model only.
One reason is to help the dealer burn it off when the styles change. So, the "real price" for a new unit may be quite a bit more. Due to price and distribution controls, many items for sale on eBay are actually being re-sold, so you may not be getting a warranty. Also, like other big ticket items you may require minor service, whether for a surface blemish, adjustment on a burner, etc. When you buy from the internet, you usually give up all of that. Service costs money too, maybe even in your business.
