10 k seems to be a little low. Ive seen 11- 11, 800. Keep in mind it is not a small spa. I think it is 8' long

Ok I will chime in, the Dupree Bay is a great spa however, if you take a look at the cost of the Dupree Bay vs the cost of the Lotus bay, you will find them to be so similar that the Lotus is an even better value, as they both take up about the same space. The only real difference is they have essentially cut the corners off the Dupree Bay. Wow $10,200 sounds like a dealer who dont plan on being in business for long! >:(
BTW you should be able to buy that Dupree for $11.5k and the Lotus for only $700 more. ;)

That is a giving it away price! It is well worth thhe $11.8k it is suppose to be sold at. ;)

Gee, I would have moved a lot of mature shrubs to make the room for that spa, at that price! :o
With my space requirements I couldn't fit it; the price w/o negotiating $11,879.00, (for the one you have been quoted) To me it sounds like you have an awsome deal. IMHO.

Heck, Spaman leaves this site for a year or so and now he's posting things that make sense?!?! I guess getting away from Cal Spas has worked! ;) ;D
I've always thought that Dupree looks pretty sharp in a picture and probably is a great performer but $11k for a 2 person spa? I know it's not your everyday 2-seater and they're trying to sell it like it's a Lamborgeenie but I guess I'm too conservative. I totally agree that the Lotus seems like such a better buy for the exact reason he stated, it's the Dupree but they decided to build the rest of the spa, not just a big wedge!

Google "redneck hottub" and you will find Spatechs version of the ideal tub. ;D
Oh and thanks for the "welcome back" I think. ::)

We've probably sold as many or more Dupree's than any dealer in the nation...
That price is very good, as far as if it is worth it...Here are some interesting statistics for you;
1. Just about every customer that has bought one has been a second or third time buyer,
2. All of them have expressed that it is the best massage they've ever received in a spa.
3. When asked none of them would change it for a larger model
In my opinion it is the perfect spa for the same person that prefers a Porsche to a Suburban! (did I really suggest that someone would buy a 2 person auto for more than an 8 person one!?!? What is the matter with me!!??[/b]) ;) 8-)

So, Stuart, if you are going to make a claim like that it leads to the next questions. How many total? How many annually?
-
Dupree is a specialized product...most dealers will sell one or two per year if any. I think last year we were close to 10 for the year. It certainly isn't something you sell every day and I don’t have total numbers off the top of my head but I’m repeating what my rep told me.
Our best sellers are the Marquis Epic, 641, Lotus Bay, Dupree Bay, Californian and Wayfarer. In the last few months we’ve been seeing an increase in Amore Bay’s and even sold 2 AFS’s in a month, which for us is amazing.
Those seem to change year-by-year depending on who is working the floor. Salesmen seem to show the products they love the best.

Thank you stuart

No problem...
BTW, I should clarify that we are a single store and often I make a broad statement like that about a dealership when I should say that "no other store" rather than dealership.
hottubdan, your part of a company that has 6 stores yet I think we could hold our own with any of them most months.

I am sure you could. You have a good reputation with 2 good brands...plus Spaman.
What is your opinion of IHT and Spa Palace?

IHT is a first class act...Rich does a great job and I learned a lot from him.
His crew is very customer service orriented and I feel that comes down from the top.
Spa Palace...My mother said if you didn't have anything nice to say that you shouldn't say anything at all so I'll just stay quiet there. ;)
