OK, if you say so. I think you may not have purchased any popular luxury piece recently. The market has gotten increasingly crazy in recent years for hyped up pieces. In some cases, the hype dies and then the pricing becomes more normal, and maybe you can get a discount. In many cases, the demand is so pent-up, especially due to spillover demand from people who can't get Rolex, that this lasts a very long time.
For example, I doubt anyone is able to get discount from AD on Cartier Solarbeat Tank. Cheers.
