Maybe first check to see if they are really logged in as a dealer.
Try adding this to a page and see:

[if scratch dealer]
  I am a Dealer, and I should get dealer prices!
[/if]

After that, at least you know the system does see them as a dealer...

I just tried the demo store in IC 5.4.1 and dealer quantity pricing doesn't
seem to work in that either, it still picks up pricing from the q fields not
the w fields of the pricing table, has anyone got dealer quantity pricing to
work?

Thanks,
Andy.
