So maybe not as straight forward as it first seems.

yer...I have had a 10% or more in some cases, discount from my LHS for around ten years+ But when I bought a phenix flight sim I was told they had to charge me full RRP, no less! as if phenix (or importer?) found anyone giving discounts they would stop supply instantly.
