I’m going to the St Paul show this year (1st time) and I thinking of picking a pair of these brand of bibs up. What sort of price will I see? full retail? Thanks for any info
I bought some Stricker bibs at the show last year. It seems 20 percent off of retail is usually the going rate. I would check every one, but I usually buy all the big ticket items from Reeds. It is hard to beat their price. Just find one of their guys with a calculator and ask them what the show price is.
Cash will sure help. I would agree with arcticm as 20% seems about right but you might be able to do a bit better but need to do some negotiating. My go to retailers would also be Reeds and Marine General. My predator and climate suits have both held up well for me.
Bundle a couple things together and ask them for a deal. Seems like i had 4-5 things in my arms, the higher priced stuff was 20% or so, but a TICA reel and the Otter tow bar were about 1/2 price.
i’ve picked up two sets of bibs over the years there. First set Ice Armor and was able to pick up for $80 original was $150 at the time.
Last year I picked up new striker for $130 can’t remember the original cost but was over $200 so I was happy with both sets I have picked up at the show. If you find the right place they will work with you.
