Visited the PP "salon" in NYC a few weeks back - wow, what a place and what a collection of stock to mull over. But, $ prices were awful when converted back to £, and one of those rare times when it's actually cheaper to buy something here rather than there.

Anyway, chewing over moving to a PP - wondered if others on this board had experience of a dealer willing to deal?

They will discount but have a pretty poor selection (and are about to lose their franchise)

I'm presuming any discount will be best dealt with in person rather than over the 'phone, so I better get driving round the country!

I believe UK prices rose earlier in February, so not particularly good timing.
