Caldera Price Quotes for in stock Cantabria / Makena

(1/3) > >>

AnderSuitt:
Me again... Thought we had narrowed it down to the Hot Spring High Life or Bullfrog A Series, but I really like the Caldera (dry test only). Dealer has the following. Are these decent prices?
- Utopia Cantabria: $16,500 incl. Bluetooth (didn't want this but it's already installed), steps, cover lifter, subpanel, delivery, 12 months same as cash
- Paradise Makena: $11,500 incl. steps, subpanel, delivery, 12 months same as cash (cover lifter is $450)

We originally wanted the Geneva, but he won't get any in until September so we could do the bigger Utopia or similar size but step down to Paradise series. The price on the Geneva would be $13,800.

Quotes from other dealers we've spoken to:
- Hot Spring Envoy $14,500 or Aria $13,500 incl delivery and subpanel, available in July
- Bullfrog A7L $12,200, available in July

Sam:
Don't know about the others, but An A7L in July for that price is crazy.  I would jump on that in a heartbeat.  Most dealers are thousands more and can't get them even close to that soon.

If the Caldera is what you want over Hot Springs and Bullfrog (all 3 good choices) then ask yourself which spa you really want to be sitting in for the next 15 years rather than which one you can get next month (IMO of course)! Sounds like you really want the Geneva and generally I'd say hold off for your true #1 choice but at the same time bigger size can be better so if you can't wait and have no issues with the extra cost for the Cantabria then that's not a bad route. Even in this market don't hesitate to try to negotiate some more off their "best" price (they can only say "no") but at the same time don't be shocked if they hold firm, finding buyers isn't a problem for any dealer these days. Once they won't budge on spa price you could try to get things added for free or cost but that's just the way I think as I've seen many deals end with "no that's our best price but we'll give you an additional $100 of supplies for free or 25% off chems the first year...".

waterpro:
AnderSuitt, where are you located?  If you don't want the A7L at that price I'll take it!  The dealer around me is quoting me at $14,500 with pretty much no accessories.

Actually, it's not Sam but AnderSuitt.

They are in Louisana.
