Universal Cycles was selling them for a long time at $380 ($390, now - with free shipping to the US). I called a Touring Cyclist shop, told them I found one online for $380, and the guy on the other end said "I can get you one for $350." Now I have a Cross-Check.

Based on the ease of that transaction, I would guess that margin is high enough that many bike shops will cut you a deal.
