Hi,

I would like to know what could be considered to be a good discount on B&O products (especially for TVs)?

Are they the same for the BeoPlay brand or can we expect bigger discounts?

Thanks

discounts have always been problematic with B&O.

since I usually buy one thing at a time (and often separated by a year or more in time) the "discounts" I have received have been tyically "in kind" and small.

the difference however was when I once took advantage of a special offer - there you are getting value for the same price, for example the current BL 3s with a Playmaker added for "free".

Or specific to your question, the current deal going in several geographies, where you get a "free" Beosound 8 and in some situations a ~AUD2,500 discount.  But I think that deal relates to the pending update of Beovisions to the same of equivalent video engine as in the V1.

However if you are happy with the current BV10 and/or BV7 ranges why not take advantage of this offer ?

You might find you do not like the new range and have missed out a good deal.

Alternatively you might find the new range better ... and will have to console yourself with having gotten a good deal.

My BV8-40 was a good deal (demo model), but I still look at the V1 and go 😮 🤔

It's driving my wife nuts 😂

I have been proposed a free extra fret for a V1-32... (while Loewe proposed me 15% off a Connect ID 40) 😮

I know it's easy for me to say, and it hasn't always been this way trust me, but paying the dealer the full wack in the knowledge he will be a bit better off and therefore have a more stable business is far more important than any token discount you might secure.

I need my dealer,and my dealer needs me to buy and keep and buying at the full price. What you get back in after care, far outreaches a small percentage discount.

I agree with Chris, the small discount has a smaller value than having a dealer that looks after you..  

For example, our new tv broke down 3 times. My dealer lend us another Beo tv that we could use for the time we needed for considering - if we were to let them exchange the "old" one for a new tv or if we wanted to return the tv and refund our money. They have done alot of extra things for us, so now when I need to buy something in the BeO store I never ask for a discount.

Of course it is Keith!

I must be having a senior moment🙁

I get 15% in two B&O stores in Denmark.

On one hand I don't like people always asking for discounts, (I once worked in a store), on the other hand I like to get things as cheap as possible.
