I think I see your argument, however I the reality is that B&M dealers discount all the time too.I could be looking at this one sided, but I tend to think the audiophile demographic is pretty affluent - on average. And part and parcel to that, generally fairly well educated and intelligent - with a few exceptions of course.
Anyway - looking at this from that vantage point - do the manufactures think most audiophiles perceptions are that easily swayed simply by seeing a discounted price. Most of us already have a pretty good idea of what the mark up on gear is anyway. (Not saying mark up is good or bad, just stating that most of us have a general idea of what's built into the price anyway - so does seeing it discounted really impact our perception that much)
