I seem to remember that they has some kind of "card", but you had to pay an annual fee for it (atleast for me, it made no sense)...

If you have a guides cert. you get 10% off at Au Vieux. I don't remember any other discounts. Their regular retail for most brand name stuff if lower than MSRP. I think they sell for as little as possible without getting cut off by their suppliers, a bit like MEC in canada.

Yes, discounts for professionals, and a Vieux Campeur Card which is actualy a quite comprehensive insurance for you and your gear. As a bonus you got a free credit, but nothing more.
As Idiris pointed it out, they are already offering the best prices (and the biggest choice) on the french market.
Now, if you're in France now, they are still discounting last year gear. Last week I almost bought some new Snake BC at 199Euros and some 400E '05 Head boots for 99Euros... I saw K2 Seth and Made 'n Ak, sweet and big daddies, ZAG Gold... at -50%.

They had been cutted off by Burton this year ! Their catalog has a double page explaining why they are not carrying any Burton boards for '06'07.
Smart move from Burton...
