Default RE: WTF Is up withe the extra 1K tacked on Softails?

ORIGINAL: Brackneyc

If there is no markups happening, why suddenly have all three dealers in our area stopped posting the orices of new bikes on their websites? They all say "see dealer for pricing." We did a price check (inperson)between two dealers on a 1200C, and the difference was 1000.00 exactly between dealers....yesterday.
I thinkit has beendetermined that this markup is not a widespread practice but instead, is being done by three dealers in the DFW area. And as it happens, the 3 dealers have are owned by the same family.
