Yes, I've already laid the ground for negotiation today by making it clear that I'm also looking elsewhere and that I'm impressed by the current offer on the Horizon. I think I'd at least want them to throw in the walking foot if I went for the Husqvarna - can't believe I have to pay extra for that.
