• FLOOR MODELS
  
  These aren't mannequins lying down on the job. The grittier reality is that these are items that were used for retail display or demonstrations -- and while they may be none the worse for wear, they are, or should be, marked down. Depending on condition, discounts can range from 10 percent to the-sky's-the-limit. (If you're aware that a purchase you're considering is a retired floor model and you're not offered a reduction -- speak up!)
