--- Quote ---Mendicino, am a little confused. Marquis has a numder iditifyed line of tubs; z pack, upgraded dura base????(little more info please)

for spatech and zztop, I am haveing a hard time with not just the price increase, ok a little( which I feel there sould be some competative flexing, u agree yes/ no????)
But that 7y dura base  warrenty is hard for me to get past. which may be clouding my original focus.
hope u all understand I appreciate your time, input and shareing of knowhow.
adding insult to injury maybe some of u who work on these 2 tubs can give some insight if ur out there.

Big Thanks

Not all dealers are willing to negotiate or "flex" on price depending on how they price their tubs. If the dealer is unwilling to budge, you might try to have them "throw" something in to close the deal. Keep in mind however, that some dealers choose to display their bottom line price rather than show an inflated price and then "discount" it to show false savings.

stiffy,
Did you check out the cupon marquis usually has online for a $200 discount. I think it is still on the manufactures website.

SunshyneGyrl:
here's a suggestion, ask for an upgraded warrenty on the sweetwater.  my dealer said that they would do it if we went with the bahia.  we ended up with the optima from sundance but bahia was 2nd option.

Do yourself a huge favor and do whatever you can to wet test the tubs you are interested in. In my experience the dry test meant absolutely nothing as every tub felt different wet (Reward SA included) not to mention that you can't know how the jets feel without getting in front of them.

I've been looking seriously at Marquis - my local dealer has a small showroom, with only one 240v tub wet. I ended up traveling to a further dealer with a much larger inventory on my local dealer's recommendation. They had all but one tub wet that I wanted to test - well worth the trip. When my local dealer found that I actually made the trip and knew I was a serious buyer he told me he would fill that one tub I didn't get to test.

The only way to know which tub is better for you at the price given is to wet test. I've found that the truth in how much "flex" there is comes when the dealer knows you are serious about buying a particular tub.

stiffy:
OK folks, reread yourall advice. and am wet testing marquis today, mirage,reward(regular) and the eutopia.
Will most deffenetly test the caldera, D-1 for a comparison then the sweetwater(when the time to do so presents itself). Like you all say wettest, wettest,wettest.
Will get back for those who would like to know how marquis went.

Once again youall are great people and me and my family thank you for what advice you have given and any more that is comeing.
For those of you who will not see my post on the marquis test, have a safe fourth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
