You are exactly correct with your assessment. And the OP and others with similar situations are always talking about awarding the hard to get pieces this way at MSRP.

A local AD in my area solved the allocation problem by selling at current market value so everyone has an equal opportunity to get one of the hard to get pieces but they have to pay current market value. It doesn't matter who you are as long as you have the bucks, you will get the watch!
