Any high end system, home theater or stereo, simply cannot be done right any other way than by investment of vast personal time and energy. It requires that you learn a lot, listen a lot, shop and compare a lot. You go to one place for everything you are doing none of that. Oh you may kid yourself but seriously, you get even a little way down the right path you learn so much no way would you ever try what you're doing.
So you put yourself in the position of having one dealer in control of nearly everything, you send the message of being unwilling (or unable, or both) of doing any of this yourself. You put yourself in this weak vulnerable position. Then you ask what should you expect?
You should expect to be raped, and count yourself lucky to not also be beaten.
But hey, no worries, its a metaphor. You got plenty of money. This is what its there for. Maybe do better next time. Maybe not. Oh well.
And oh btw, on the off chance you really do want to try and get a better deal then you better look at the man in the Oval, maybe even read his book, or at least learn this one very crucial lesson: you got to be prepared to walk.
