Right now if you are able to get OE Saab parts, your doing well. Any discount from Saab list is a blessing and should not be expected at all from here on out. Coming off a 6 week freeze, my opening stock order for parts was just over $10k.
I yet to see price changes with parts mid-month so far with Saab. Their pricing sheets seem to be updated on a calender month basis. I get calls all the time from other shops, clients, potential clients asking "how much". To be fair to both them and myself I simply tell them I need to lookup the current pricing as it can change greatly. Any dealers that gave shops 10-15% off before are not giving anything off list now and usually charging 10-20% over list for walk in customers.
Saabs pricing is "suggested". A select few dealers here in FL have always priced their parts over Saab list. Known as matrix pricing. Really as its turning out, Saabs suggestion does not mean much now as they have spun out of control.
Hard to find required hard part pricing is now being set by simple Econ101 supply and demand. For an example of this check ebay and search for a new in bag 9-3 remote/transponder. Most listed upwards of $400-500 each. 10 times what they listed for when available from Saab.
