Nordic people: are Nordic Escape MS and Crown II roughly the same cost?

betsbillabong:
Hi all,

I ordered a Nordic Escape MS but have realized that I'd rather have a round tub. Is the pricing on the Crown II similar?

Hottubguy:
Crown II should be a bit cheaper. Maybe $300 cheaper give or take but definitely not more

betsbillabong:
Very helpful - thank you!

betsbillabong:
Update - they are not willing to go down in price, but I did switch to the Crown II. I was really hoping for the stainless steel bands around the tub, but he says they are offering them to me as a $500 upgrade which seems wildly overpriced. I am guessing I could put them on after the fact?

Honestly, I don't have a very good negotiating position. I have the last spot for a tub on a truck arriving in February, and other dealers are ordering into fall 2021 and even 2022. So, I just decided to get the Crown II with ozone, upgraded insulation, and upgraded lights (which I don't care about, but can't get out of) without steps, cover lifter, or stainless steel bands for $6398. Sigh. The Boulder bubble. HCOL at its finest.

I'll be able to upgrade the steel bands myself at some point if I want to, right? Don't they just circle around?

Now to figure out another foundation option, since the contractor they recommended wants $2800 for an 8x8 concrete pad, sigh. I think I'm going to go with crushed rock.

BullFrogSpasMN:
I charge $500 ish more for the Escape, and SS bands I charge $475...and no I don't think they can really be added after the fact, where would you source that type of Stainless Steel band from?
