I'm looking to purchase a new Grand Seiko from an AD in the US. I also like to haggle. What should I realistically expect for a good discount off of retail? I've heard anywhere from 15% - 25%. I'm looking at non-limited edition references.

Check out John’s friends at Timeless Luxury. I just bought an Omega from them, got an excellent price. They have a great selection of GS also.

Definitely do this ⬆️.

20% should be doable.

I bought a new (but had been on the shelf for a while) GS two months ago, made an initial offer at 15% off retail and it was accepted immediately which tells me I should have started with a lower number.

Good luck!
