Is it Possible to Get A Price Break on a Hi-Beat GS?

[ericinexile]

Hi All, dumb question perhaps. It’s time I gave up on the Explorer II and have been instead considered going for the lovely SBGJ203. Is the steel sport watch craze crossing brands? I mean I know it never hurts to ask. But should I harbor any expectation for anything but a laughing shove out the door when I start negotiating? The last two GS boutiques I’ve visited (London, NYC) were very lonely, quiet establishments so I think there’s at last a small chance of 5%. Looking for a little morale support. Thanks.
