My colleague recent bought that exact bike from one of the shops here for $720, 10% discount, during a holiday sale. I'd wager there is definitely room for negotiation.

As for accessories, you may need a lock if you don't already have one. A u-lock is highly recommended. Whether or not you decide on a helmet is up to you, but if you buy one at the same time as your bike, you may get some kind of discount on it. Some people choose to get Pitlock or Pinhead locks to secure their wheels and possibly their saddles in place of QR skewers. Racks, fenders, and kick stands could also be considerations.

Reflective velcro probably isn't going to stick to your backpack unless for some reason you have one side of the velcro material attached to your bag.
