I am not going to pretend knowing anything about a manufacturer setting the prices. I do know that my nearest Mathews dealer is selling his SB's lower than anyone else in the state as far as I know, and he is doing it with Mathew's blessing. The one thing that I do know Mathews is making him do.........setting up and hunting with an '06 SB XT instead of his favored '05 SB.

i dont think mathews sets there pricing for there pro shop stores, because the shop i deal with give me a 50 dollar discount because me and a body bought one the same time. it cost right at 700.they mite giving some guidlines on the price. i cant imagion that they make the pro shop owner set one up and has to use it. unless maybe hes a pro staff or something and mite be on camra. i dont really blame them for him to shoot the newer bow. but who knows!!!!!!!!!!!

I had been told by a semi-reliable source that Mathews was "spanking" some authorized shops for selling too cheaply. How much is too much and based on what (MSRP, Dealer cost, etc.. ) I do not know.

From what I've been hearing in this thread though. Either it was horse pucky info, it didn't have any effect or they haven't got to "everyone" yet.

Well, I must say that I feel a bit disillusioned by my Local Archer shop guys now. Seems that I have been decieved. Kind of makes me feel that the dealer just didn't want to give me a deal.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the info.

Hey Mike Hill...I have been to the Kittery Trading Post. I lived in NH, and Maine for about 5 years up in the Rockland area. We would drive down there just for S&G's. It has been about 12 years since I was there, (I live in St. Louis now) but I have to say I always liked that place. Small world.

Local shop here quoted my friend $799. I know someone who got a much cheaper quote from the same guy, and one $749 quote in Mass, so my friend is taking his business to Kittery. They quoted him $699.

RE: Mathews switchback XT
 

Was told $615 for the SB and a little more for the XT (Cannot remember exactly).

Sorry, that's in IL right across from St. Louis.
