Re: What online retailers have the best prices on Duncans
I think John, at Blackrose, and I, at Lew's Guitars, have the best selection and best prices. The max anyone can discount off of retail is about 30%....and that's the discount you'll find at Lew's Guitars or Blackrose. Except for the Antiquity line...those don't have much mark up so the discount cannot be as deep. Lew

Duncan, like many brands today, have MAP (minimum advertised pricing) guidelines. This means that you can't advertise below a certain price, and is why almost everyone has the same price. Now, that doesn't mean they can't SELL it for lower - Duncan can't stipulate that, by law. But this makes it hard to haggle - most places won't go lower because you can't bring in a lower price for them to match, so there's no reason for them to cut price.
There are places that will knock $5 or $10 off, but it's generally gonna be a one-on-one thing.
