Glock has made it clear that if they find a BL dealer charging far more than the BL MAP (or equivalent), they can lose their BL status and potentially their authorized dealer status. We had a LGS that lost their ability to sell Glocks due to documented price gouging and have to acquire from distributors or buy from other shops to meet customer demand. In an AAC I attended last fall, it was a serious topic how Glock will go after shops selling/gouging on BL prices.

Love the fact that Glock stands by our first responders with BL pricing and goes after scumbag dealers price gouging us. Makes me happy to support this type of company.
 
From Glock's website: Dealer Prices may vary and are not set by GLOCK. Most pricing will be $75. - $100 off the retail price depending on the model and sight configuration.

 
BL pricing does not vary. As someone previously stated, some dealers claim they are BL dealers, but actually arent. Go to the Glock site to find authorized BL dealers and the prices are what they are. 19X for $533 is the correct BL price. If the shop actually IS a BL dealer authorized through Glock and they are inflating prices, then the DM of that area needs to be notified so it can be addressed.
 
A few years ago, the owner of a local indoor range (now out of business) got his Blue Label dealership from Glock. He stated that he was going to charge $20 more than the other Blue Label dealer on the other side of town. He stated that people would pay the difference to avoid the drive.

I told him that I didn't mind driving to different shops to do my shopping...

Try X-Ring Supply in Newark.

Also TargetMaster, in Glen Mills, PA (202, right over the DE/PA border) as they have a DE office and will do your transfer there for no additional charge.

Both are Glock BL dealers.
Thanks for mentioning them, I had forgotten they were up there. Called them today, didn't have a 19X in stock but he said they could order one and hopefully they'd have it in less than a week. Fingers crossed.
 
When I purchased a Gen 5 G19 BL , It was $429 This was a couple of years ago.
I found out that not every BL dealer sells at the Glock BL price. The Dealers can, and will add on extra to the BL price that Glock sets. So you have to shop around for dealers.
I think it's ****ty for a dealer to do it, defeats the whole purpose, but Caveat Emptor.
 
Blue label prices are set by Glock. There are Glock BL distributors, and then there are those who claims and may get ahold of BL guns, but they’re not actually Glock BL distributors. I’ve done a fair amount of business with GT and they always mirror Glock BL prices. I’ve inquired about blue BL with several LGS in my area and they’re usually $50 or more higher. They’re giving a slight LE discount and that’s about it. Being a Glock distributor is a coveted accomplishment and those who violate it go the way of the doe-doe…
 
There is a LE only outfit near me that is in a chain of LE shops that sells at the real BL price. It's further out than a more local, non-LE only shop that is a BL dealer, but sells at about $30-$50 above BL prices, depending on the pistol. On the Glock dealer map, the first shows as a LE dealer (as does GT Distributors, BTW), and the second shows only as a BL dealer. I'd check that map for a LE dealer and do business with them if you don't want the markup. They aren't all over the place, so you might have to expand your search.

It was explained to me that BL dealers who aren't on Glock's map as LE dealers get their pistols through a different pipeline, which contributes to the markup.
