I couldn't find any discount sales anywhere (3 years ago). Though, they were available locally in roofrack shops (I belive there are 3 of them in my "village"), for the same price as on e-bay or slightly cheaper, especially considering USD/CDN excange rate and high shipping costs if I were to buy them with bars. Eventually I've opted for a used "towers" (legs) in Classifieds, complete with locks and keys, plus new brackets (specific item for each model), since it was impossible to get used towers with the brackets exactly for my model, plus a pair of bars from roofrack shop. The total cost was, I believe, 1/4 of MSRP. I spent quite a bit of time try to buy my Yakima system on-line (E-Bay, retailers...etc.), and I finally ended up buying them from my local supplier here in town. After adding in freight charges to the online sale prices for used items, they weren't any cheaper than buying new. And I didn't have to wait to get them. Luckily one of the local suppliers went out of business as I was getting ready to buy the last set of rollers, and saddles, so I ended up saving about 60% on them! Purely luck of the draw that day!
