Help need advice for 116610LN
Here's the situation I want to buy this watch my local AD here in Vancouver BC is offering me at $8000 CAD all in plus 1 year extra warranty. But I will be going to Las Vegas in a couple months. Do you think I can get a better deal in Vegas and if so how much would I actually be saving or should I just purchase the watch here in Canada? I can't decide...

Many members here state that the AD's in Vegas don't wiggle on the price..
Personally, I've never tried. Go with you gut however. If you feel you can do better, wait and see, or just buy it now in Canada!?! Good luck! 8000 out the door in BC seems a good deal to me...and I'd take it if I were in the market!

That`s a good all in price,it`ll be way more if you pay tax and duty when you return from Vegas,keep it an all canadian deal and save yourself any trouble at customs,eh.

If you are ready to buy, walk in the AD with $7,700 or whatever else you think might be reasonable, show him the cash and offer it to him, it might work.
Cash is king, and if they see you are serious and have cash at hand ready, they might budge on price. |

That's a good price. I paid 8410 out the door for mine minus 13% HST. Take it!

A new one has a 2 year Rolex warranty. So given an extra year warranty is good. I'd buy it where you are so there are no headaches for the next 3 years. |

People in Vegas don't care to spend whatever. Good luck getting a discount there unless you are buying a $50k+ watch and have cash....
