Here's a used NS3-88 for $3599, but you can get a better than advertised price on a new one by calling or requesting a deal through the website.

Not true, all of them are advertising the same price. Call and talk to somebody on the phone instead of just ordering online. I can recommend Pro Audio Star https://www.proaudiostar.com
as a good place to start.

I have called around to several places already, and there is no negotiating the price. I will try Pro Audio Star, but will say that I have never experienced companies listing one price, only to negotiate a lower one over the phone - especially for a Nord.

Another price drop in Netherlands. NS3 HA88 offered at €2.925 (Bax shop, largest store in NL). Totally strange, as the compact and 76 are priced even higher (!). Other retailer also dropped price to €3250

Now at Bax Shop it's € 3999 again... Maybe someone at there made a mistake at website maintenance? :?

That's pretty crass. If they sold any at that price, they're sure to have lost some cash.

Got me a Stage 3 Compact for a great price by calling around. Very happy. Pro Audio Star boinked me by selling me one, then saying they didn't have it. Frustrating. But I recovered by finding a deal that was better by $100.

Free market, folks.

Just keep working it :) No regrets!
