Best UK dealer discount?

22 replies

Hello, I hope this is not a sensitive topic but as I would be looking to purchase a new B&O V1 television I was wondering if anyone could please guide me to a dealer who is willing to offer generous discounts?

I am in the market for a 40", cash transaction no help installing or advice. 

Please post or send me pm.

 

Thanks

I understand why you have asked this question, but the price is not always the bottom line when it comes to this gear.

... but for this customer it clearly is!  And he is quite happy to have 'no help installing or advice'.  Ideally I suspect he'd like to order online.

I too would be very interested to know the answer.

Our V1 took 3 hours to install by the dealer and I would not have enjoyed trying to do it myself. If you look at the beoplay website ,all the other products can be bought online though.

3 hours!  Really?

But some people enjoy the technology and embrace the challenge of installing the equipment themselves.  Generally all you have to do is read the manual!

EDIT:  Just looked at your 'flash your B&O' post - have you told him it's upside-down???!

  • It could have been 4hrs! but In my opinion its a bit like eating at a restaurant and staying out of the kitchen!

i came back from work and the V1 was up and running .

... but I've watched loads of 'Nigella' and still struggle with scrambled egg!  Each to his own.

I believe one dealer that was very generous with giving away his margin has just gone out of business this week! Another bites the dust... The online price is from B&O directly so you won't find any movement there and as the margins on Play items like other consumer electronics discounts won't be found easily as Dealers want to protect their slim margins to be able to pay the Tax man, rent, rates, B&O and other creditors.

No dealer offers "generous discounts", that's the nature of the brand. Your best option is either to ask your dealer if he has an ex-display V1 he wants to sell (you might get a 10-15% discount on ex-display) or look at the pre-loved dealers.
