What kinda spec are you going for if you dont mind me asking
Tbh do you blame him? Prices have been pushed ridiculously hard against us by manufacturers, steel and energy increases were used as excuses for price rises and they are now back down, don’t think it’s out of the way to expect prices to come back.
Will it? The OP has clearly indicated his desire to spend money to save tax(may not be the sole reason of course), hardly a sign of desperation. While people are spending to save tax I’m not sure machinery prices will come down. Doesn’t help those who don’t need to ‘save’ tax though.
If thats true why is it used as an excuse when theyr putting prices up

same reason they use a high wheat price as an excuse to put the price of bread up or a high spud price to put up the price of chips.
I think in many cases it was a good excuse for a lot of machinery to go up in price during COVID and the following Ukraine invasion when steel prices went sky high and nobody questioned it at the time as it seemed plausible. Trouble is prices haven't come back for a lot of things. I do think machinery prices had been held back possibly a bit by competition and maybe a lot of companies knew this and took the opportunity to increase prices when they could get away with it but not to the level they are now.
I understand the dealer he hates has stock that quite possibly wants shifting. If ordering from new I think the trade have accepted the fact they are going to sell less but possibly want double the margin on what they do sell.
