The MSRP from Toro is $1149 for the ES and $1049.99 for the recoil start so if the dealer has $999 you better grab it and go cause he already has it marked down and he probably wont deal any further unless it's last years model and he is trying to get it off the floor. Due to the fact the mower doesn't cost that much to begin with and it's a residential unit, there's generally not going to be a lot of mark up.

Go to work for this dealer, and work cheap in exchange for knowledge.. In turn, you will likely get certain units close to dealer costs.....

I don't understand, you say you are going to buy from a dealer, but when he gives you his best price (which is $200 below MSRP) you are asking for are way to get a better deal??? What am I not understanding???

That is the same price the big box stores offer as well as Mowers Direct. I cannot imagine a dealer wanting to sell it cheaper. Look for some other way to save some money.

Haven't got the offer yet I saw it in there a month ago didn't talk to anyone. If that's a good deal ill go with that I have just never bought through a dealer except for parts so I was just wondering if there is some kind of secret haggling process
