Hey madman, you just need to email DSN with your choices and he will send you back the prices.
Good luck.

Or you can look in his dealer section. He's got prices posted there. For some of the really old listings, those may not be current prices, but they should give you an idea, at least.

Good luck!

Thx guys..
and when he replies-are those final or negotiable prices? He replied with the following: pam0111h @ $430 and 177 or 176 @ $460. Does that sound ok? I'm crazy about getting one or two asap, but since the communication w/ him is not as easy.. I'm starting to think about getting them from another dealer. Any thoughts?..

I appreciate your help,

PM

If you consider buying two at a time maybe you both can work out a small discount...(?)
I was negotiating a 249 & a 127 (from memory...) and he offered a small discount. (Not prepared to say how much).
But it's worth asking. I didn't go through with the transaction because the 6152 I had organized was FINALLY finished.
If you're worried about the prices being a bit too high, and things are tight for everyone at the moment I'm sure you could research these 2 pieces with another dealer.

Maybe PAN experts chime in with any thoughts...

Unfortunately every-thing's gone up, even from China.
Good luck!

I really don't understand why any retailer or dealer would not list prices on ANY THING. If I go to a store or a website and prices are not listed, I move on. I have been looking for a used 911, if I don't see a price, I don't even bother. If I don't see the miles listed, I dont waste my time. It really isn't a good approach and I am not sure if dealers realize that they lose a LOT more than they gain by doing it.

If there is one thing I have learned by getting involved in this hobby it is patience. The enthusiasm for a new purchase can make the waiting time even more challenging.

However, in the end, long after you have received the watch, you will be glad you spent the time to properly research your purchase and communicate completely with your selected dealer.

DSN builds some of the best Pam reps, and they usually come with valuable mods that often require more expense and more wait time on a watch purchased without them. In addition, his watches seem to fetch higher prices on the used forum.

I have not seen a post where a member was saying that they wish they hadn't purchased a DSN watch due to the communication challenges or the price.

He is a recommended dealer here (and one of the longest lasting) for a good reason.

When I was looking for my vintage 6152, he wa the only dealer recommended to me, for good reason.
I keep reading about communication problems with DSN.....never happened with me and as dvburns said, you need patience.

dvburns is on the money here. DSN is the man when it comes to rep Pams.
And I think his prices are very fair considering the shipping is usually added into the price of your watch or watches. There may be a discount on more than one, ask David.

Bear in mind the time and date difference in dealing with DSN, or many of our dealers for that matter.
As for price, you can buy these watches from many of our reputable dealers, but they will not have the care of build and modifications DSN puts into his. If you're looking for the best Pam out there, he's hard to beat at any price.
And like you've heard, I've never seen anyone disappointed in the process or the watch in the long run. Patience is part of this hobby - quite possibly the hardest part.
I have a DSN 082 and it's truly a work of art.

As some of the guys mentioned, DSN's PAMs are up there with the best. If you are going to be looking to do some modding yourself he may not be the best choice. But if you want one of the best PAM reps to go from the bubblewrap straight to your wrist without thinking about additional changes, he is hard to beat.

I had an excellent transaction with DSN, and everything arrived exactly as promised. I believe it's worth the premium in price.

Regards,

Hey Madman, DSN is the man for any Pam. He's an excellent dealer and what you see is what you get. If you want a superior watch Give him an email, he will respond. Good luck and be patient.

there is a very good reason some of them don't list prices. the cartel has people checking the other dealers prices and if they are selling too low they put pressure on them to raise their prices. move on to the next dealer if you wish but it is generally worth your time to email for a current price and then shop around.
