In the U.K if there is not a high gross margin on these products? How is it that the major dealers sold the KN6000 for £1999 (theprice I paid for mine 2 years ago) and the sell it and forget brigade advertised them at £1599 (brand new). They also have to make a profit to stay in business. Of course if we want the K/B and we feel we are getting a good deal then all this is totally irrelevant.

I happen to have a Technics dealer price list from some years ago (KN2000 era), and the margins are VERY slim. Probably around no more than 350 pounds at best. Still have that price list somewhere, which is in Dutch guilders. Even if a dealer got bulk discount, it's all poor profit IMO. Surprises me they can make a living off of selling Technics. I know other brands such as Yamaha are quite cheaper to buy for a dealer.
