My dealer charges "consumer list" to anyone who walks in off the street. That's the "high list" that you get gouged on. There is a lower list, which is the price you'll see online with places like MB of Atlanta. I think it's either 10% or 15% off consumer list. Then there is the jobber discount, which is what they give local shops. Also known as a trade discount. That's what I get, and it is 25% off consumer list. All I did was tell them I wanted to spend several thousand dollars annually with them, and they gave it to me. And I do spend that kind of money, maybe not every year, but I'm regular enough that they consider me a regular customer.
