Dealer prices on parts higher than MSRP?
Went to my local dealer today (where I get 10% off) with a shopping list in mind. I had made my list from the 2012 catalog so I knew exactly what I was going to spend.
When I started pulling parts off the shelf I noticed that the prices were running 16% higher than the book price. (so much for the 10% off...) When I asked the parts guy, he said "yeah everything went up as of Feb 1."
I was a little peeved, so needless to say I put everything back and walked out. I think I will shop around a little more.
I find it hard to believe that MOCO would print all the prices in the 2012 book and then Raise them all 16% a month after it comes out. That would not be a wise marketing decision I.M.O.
Anyone else seeing shelf prices higher than the MOCO MSRP in the catalog?

So I guess in your opinion, you could look in a Sears catalog and Sears on-line, see a product and price and when you went to the store they were charging more, that's OK because you want them to make a profit.
