Been dying to buy my 3, going on 4 year old a pw50. she loves riding around the yard with me so thinking it's time to pull the trigger. So I email the local big box Yamaha dealer about 30 minutes away. I know retail on these things are 1,499 and have always heard there is very little mark up so I am going into this thinking I could end up paying retail plus freight. So a few hours pass and I get a response back that says 2,049+ tax. Im thinking WTF!! 30% markup above retail? Who pays that shit? So anyway, I email 2 other dealers. The 2nd one didn't have one and refused to price me one even though they were expecting one soon and the 3rd dealer quoted about 1,610+ tax. I'm sure there aren't a ton of guys on here buying pw50s, but if you have what have you seen. I'll drive right passed dealer 1 to go buy from deals 3, which is 2hrs away to get mine. Stupid to think anyone would pay that much above retail. I mean it's not like the pw50 is a new high in demand bike...
