Excellent......
MOHAMMAD RAFIQ DITTO THAT! When I was interviewing for this new gig I referred the future boss to a reseller because I knew they were in the market for a new license. It saved them significant bucks so I responded, "See! I haven't even started working for you and I've already saved you some big bucks... just think how much you'll save if you hire me." ...And that's the rest of the story.

And that 3rd quote must be from their authorised reseller, if any in your area, and let them fight to lower their quote. As it is slowing market, one
must take advantage of it. In my past experience, I was putting all hardware
vendors to compete including manufacturers and going for best deals like lowest price of USA, delivery in Singapore and warranty in that country where machine is installed.
So Liza, let them fight for business and save some of your company's money and get some award for that, if you have good management.

Now just get a third quote :)

Has anyone experienced Oracle sales people gouging each other? Seems like they are getting pretty cut throat. I got one quote for $400,000, and a second quote for less than 25% of that, from two different people. WOW. They are beginning to sound like the company I work for - different story from different people.
