Buying a longarm at a show
Almost a year ago I purchased a used HQ16 and am about ready to upgrade to a newer, bigger machine with more features. There are three shows coming up in the next few months and I hope to test drive and purchase (yay!).
At this point I am considering an HQ 24" or an Innova 26".
My question is what to expect of pricing at a show. How much of a discount is typical? Or do they throw in some of the optional stuff?
Will I have to bargain? Would a local dealer who is not selling long arms at the show be likely to meet a "show price"?
Any hints would be appreciated. This is a huge investment.
Thanks in advance.

P.S. I already have an interested buyer for my HQ16.
