5960p tit for tat????
My AD calls to tell me that he has a 5960p available but I have to buy a 5196p or 5135R at MSRP in order to get the 5960P. I am not particularly interested in either the 5196p or 5135R but if I were forced to pick, I'd choose the 5135R. Do any of you members have any comment on this offer I was given? Was it a little mercenary or just the way business is done these days?
What should be my response to the AD?

The offer itself...
depends on how it was delivered. From your words, it does seem mercenary and would look to be offensive. However, IF one perhaps takes a step back and realize the game enthusiasts for this brand have to play, this could be a stepping stone to getting to t...
The actual email offer unedited (name removed to protect the guilty!)
"Good morning Wilson: I will have a 5960P coming in soon. I'm requiring all clients interested in this model that they spend an equal or greater amount in jewelry or watches. Best, *****" Anything to add????
My impression...
was that there was an actual call made aka personal connection made upon the offer. Anyway, nothing to add....
I know the AD and have bought a PP from them in 2007
I had previously bought a 5070R from this AD last year at MSRP. We have been in contact ever since and I was given this offer last week.
