You should have some kind of special connections to get this kind of discounts

Even if a Coke GMTII were shown at Basel, it would be 6-9 months before anyone would ever see on at an AD. I'd say get it.....

That is correct

Europe gets the new models fast but it takes more time for US to receive the new models

Congratulations Randy. Enjoy it in good health

You never know what is going to come out at Basel, so it's good that you bought it and made yourself happy.

You probably could have gotten a better discount if you shopped around, but if you want something bad enough and it's there, go for it

I'm still amazed that in some parts the GMT IIc is hard to come by, especially with a discount. Every time I go to my AD he has one in his case.
