My dealer is charging more for parts than other dealers

I am in Dallas. I just learned that my local dealer is charging more for parts and the shipping of the parts ordered from NuCamp, than another dealer. I have a  2021 T@B 400BD. Is that allowed? or Normal? I have bought parts from Missouri Tear Drops in the past. They sent me a new side or kitchen window 2 years ago, and I put It in myself. But I didn't want to tackle replacing my rear window. Missouri Teardrops quoted me $445 for the window, $62 for the seal and $12.50 for pvc and $547 for shipping. Blue Horizon sent me an invoice for completed job. Charging me for service, a $150 "shop fee", and they are charging me $594 for the window, $137 for the seal, and $482 for shipping. It's a $295 difference. Shouldn't the prices be standardized?

Buy from the other dealer

I am not aware that component prices are standard once acquired by a retail vendor. Good example is pricing on EBay for the same items.

@DukeHewett I didn’t find out about the price differential until it was too late. If I had know beforehand, obviously I would have bought from the other dealer.

I have no problem making members aware of this pricing issue if you want to share the dealer name/location.

I believe windows are available direct through NuCamp via their parts link . Some small parts and windows do not have to go through a dealer . Windows even have an "emergency" feature through NuCamp to get windows in your hands quickly for emergency replacement . 

BTW , NICE picture !  Ship Rock ?
