The manufacturers are protecting their small dealers by discouraging the advertising of prices that are below the MSRP. If I phone a dealer and talk to a salesperson I can get a lower price most of the time. B&H Photo automates this process by letting a buyer select to get an email quote for a discounted price and I have used this feature for the last two binos I purchased. I saved 25% by doing this.
