Bullfrog A7L floor model
Joker:
Hi all. New guy here and thanks for the great info I have read so far on this site. My wife and I have been wanting a tub for awhile and I am recovering from back surgery. My surgeon suggested getting a therapeutic hot tub if possible. So we started looking and this coming weekend are wet testing a Bullfrog A7L tub. They are moving locations and didn't have any tubs set up right now. The A7L is a floor model and has never been wet. It is an early 2015 or maybe a December 2014 build date. The tub comes with the sound system, cover, cover lift, steps, delivery, setup and chemicals for $8999 OTD. The owner and salesman even came over to my house for a site inspection and to check what the electrical power hook up looks like. He said probably around $1000 to run the 220 to the side of my house where the tub will go. The electrician will look at it and give me a quote tomorrow.
So my questions are if this is a good price for a floor model with some small chips and scratches in it? It's so hard to figure out what a decent price should be on tubs. They said they usually go for in the 12k range. We like the look of the tub and dry test was good. If this tub was made in 2014 should it be a bigger price break? It's almost 1 1/2 years old and a floor model. I don't know if there are any significant differences between 2014-2016 models. They will fill the tub and get it heated up so we can test the different packs and make sure we like the ones they have in it. If we want different ones we will have to buy them. It has the rain shower, oscillator, neck blaster, pulsator, and wellness packs I think.
They said that they would give us a good price on a brand new tub but I have no idea what that is. We haven't tested any other tubs. There are a few stores in the area but for some reason I think this deal might be hard to beat. The dealer seems to be really good and that goes a long way for me in this day and age.

Don't know much about these spas...but they would be one I would consider if I was on the market for a new spa (quality product / good reputation). The spa dealer(s) are going to tell you "it's" a great price...could be?? A good price is "how much do you want to pay?" Looking for spa pricing is impossible, but I think you are going to pay 10k-15k for a higher end tub, probably closer to the 12k mark.
I like the $8999...that's less than $9000 :). WET TEST....

giveaway price, with his time coming to your house, delivery crew, accessories + the spa/stereo he's not making enough profit to pay his utility bill on his store for the month. I assume he's doing this because he's under a time "crunch" and has to get rid of "older" product which is great news for you...good timing :-) you'll love the Bullfrog product, Happy Soaking!
Joker:
Thank you both for your replies. I figured it was a pretty good deal. I'm waiting on them to call me back with electrical cost and then do our wet test on Saturday. Looking forward to the wet test more than I thought I would.

2nd BullfrogSpasMN.
If I sell it for that, I'm closing my doors.
I'd suggest jumping on it sooner rather than later (refundable deposit?) It would suck to lose out on that deal!
