Has any H1 member managed to talk any reseller into dropping the price of Miele's products? (Apart from marked specials, that is.)
All the retailers I've checked with have identical prices for Miele, even handing out price lists that are the same. When I managed to get one salesperson to talk about this, he said that everybody acts as an agent for Miele, and that it is Miele that is really selling the product. Apparently, reduced prices for moving demo stock has to be approved by Miele.
Surely, given that these are the normal retailers that we normally haggle prices with for the other products, this would interest the ACCC!
So, has anyone had success in saving a little off the marked prices? If so, please tell where.
