·I just received an e-mail from Toppers saying they're now an Omega Boutique. My guess is their prices will now be a bit less competitive.

What does that mean, Topper only going to sell Omega now?

Still, they don't charge me sales tax so that's technically 8.25% off no matter what.
I'd hazard that anything over 10% now is probably not going to happy unless it's a discontinued model they're trying to move or maybe a "common" model.

Also, I'm SURE they have a very hard price floor on anything Omega sells now.

·If you're out of state they don't charge it. If in CA, they may discount that amount. Have heard of other OB's doing that (mine won't).

No, Topper is moving to a new location and they are splitting into two stores - One storefront will be the brands that they are authorized dealers for. The other storefront will be an Omega boutique run by the Topper staff.

·Quoted a 20% discount on Apollo 8 ceramic… Need to sell my Gray Side ceramic before I pick it up (just setting limits for myself).

·Yes the Apollo 8 discount was an AD. I’ve only bought 4 watches over 9 years but have kept in touch. Originally met the owner through work, and it is a smaller shop, but I’m nowhere near a top customer.
I was going to trade in my GSotM but their offer was a bit low, and they confirmed they’d offer the 20 off regardless of the trade-in. We’ve been in touch mostly this year around my request for a milestone watch, which finally came through amid talks of the Apollo (I believe this was related and someone passed on this piece):

·I purchased a new Hesalite speedy from my local AD in the UK last week and received a 9% discount which I was quite pleased with. They also threw in an OEM NATO strap (which I was going to buy anyway) so it was more like an 11% discount altogether.

·I prefer vintage and own only one modern Omega, but I think that less discounting is a good thing for both the brand's reputation and resale value. The problem with heavy discounting is that customers get accustomed to it and then refuse to pay a price that is closer to retail for the product.

·Wanted to chime in, just recently purchased my SMP300 grey/chrome dial for about 20% off MSRP duty free with an AD.

·I wonder if there's some trickle-down finally into the used market. I sold my seldom worn AT 41mm recently for only slightly under than what I paid new from the AD a few months previously. Outside of an LE I didn't quite bond with, that may be a first for me with modern Omegas, although I don't often sell watches on. So perhaps an Omega purchase may no longer be an immediate 40% haircut as it once was (if some pundits and posters are to be believed).
But good to see that folks are still finding the odd discount on new models.
