Default Best price on RHS block
I'm looking to buy a new RHS block. Who has the best prices? Does this site offer discounts to any online vendors here?

Ok great. Just didn't want to get jacked up on the pricing. Some places like to raise the price, and I want the best deal possible since this is a big piece of the puzzle.

Cuz God forbid a dealer makes any money Handful of sponsors sell them...I've seen prices from $4300-$4800.

Assuming your build "justifies" this kind of block, I would think a minor expense like dealer margin should be the least of your concerns.....just sayin.

You definitely have to pay to play.

That said, if the price range is between $4300 and $4800 with all else being equal, I'll take the $4300 one.

Thank you very much.

I would too, but dealers/vendors gotta make money too. That's all were saying. Of course everyone loves the best deal and cheaper price. I know I do. I don't blame the OP for wanting a deal...the best one at that. Right now Jeg's has the best deal with free shipping. That will save you $150-$200 at least.

It's all good. I have no issues with vendors, or anyone, making money. Not in the least.
