MB Parts ????

Anyone know how MB parts works. I have a price list, can dealers (non-MB) get a wholesale price on parts? Or are we forced to pay retail???

Thanks

as in any business... unless you are special, you are gonna pay retail...

3 options:
1- Shop somewhere else
2- Get to know someone at the MB shop that likes you and is willing to give you hook-ups
3- Own a car related business (10-15% off retail & no tax)

Fortunately, I have access to all 3 mentioned above... whew... MB Stuff can be ***** expensive...
