Dealer's Choice is a barbershop quartet that won the 1973 SPEBSQSA international competition in Portland, Oregon.^[1] They were the first group since 1952 to win the competition their first year entering – a feat not repeated until Acoustix did so in 1990.

The Dealer's Choice Award is given annually by the Barbershop Harmony Society to the highest-scoring quartet making its first appearance in the international competition, and was first awarded in 2009. In 2015, Dealer's Choice was inducted into the Barbershop Harmony Society Hall of Fame.^[2]
