I read in a post where some people talked the price down on their new Stihls they bought. I saw it a few times else where someone said that. I guess I'm living in the past still, because it was several years ago a Stihl dealer told me, "We don't set our prices, the company does that."
That was what I heard when I asked about prices changing. About that same time I was under the impression that their prices are not negotiable.(keep in mind I'm talking several years ago)
Am I understanding it correctly that Stihl dealers have some flexibility in their prices? I sort of feel ridiculous asking this because I'm the king of negotiating. LOL! I got it in my mind their prices are written in stone, therefore never bickered on a new Stihl before. I don't know why I have to ask this. I get most of my saw used anyway. LOL! Maybe it'll give me some courage if I hear some of you got a deal lower than the sticker price? !!
The saw in question recently was a Stihl MS 441. Two weeks ago I got a quote for $769.99 for a plain one with a 20" bar. Comparing what I heard here, that's the highest I've heard yet. LOL!
Thanks,
