Good deal? Am I blinded by desire?

Ok, so my AD (who by the way I have bought two Rolex from, a LV and AK) and I kinda came to an agreement today.

I really want a TT Blue Sub and my AD knows it. Everytime I go in there he wants me to buy one. I know how bad he wants to sell me one. So far I have him down to 5% off. I know not great. To his credit it is a big seller. I passed once again today and left.

I shopped around the mall a bit more, grabbed a bite to eat and walked out of the mall. I ran into the Manager of my AD in the parking lot and I brought up my desire for a SS Daytona again. Per him, I am "on the list."

So, I told him, "Listen you get me a white dial SS Daytona and I'll buy that TT blue Sub from you at MSRP." "I won't even try to get you to discount it." He immediately put his hand out to shake and said "Deal, you just went to the top of the list." He wanted me to come in and buy the Sub right then and there. I said, "I will when I see the Daytona." He smiled and again said "Deal."

So, am I stupid? Am I blinded by my desire for a SS Daytona? I mean I am going to get a blue Sub anyway, I just used it as leverage to insure that I get the Daytona. By the way, he said he will have it for me in October.
