Title: Comments on the Artesian South Sea Series
Post by: sldillon on March 26, 2016, 11:14:23 pm

Looking at the south seas 748L Deluxe

Around 6,000 not a top liner but seems like a real good spa for the money.

Any comments on this spa, Artesians or South Seas Line in general

Thanks,

I bought a 735L 3 months ago and love it. Although I can't personally comment on longevity, my research showed most are happy with Artesian.

Full Disclosure:  I sell South Seas Spas by Artesian.

$6,000 for a 748 is very reasonable.  I sell ours in that price range but include steps, coverlift, Dynastar LED and @ease chemical system.  I'd try to work that in as well.

The 735, as previously mentioned, is not advertised by South Seas but is a very nice tub that they pinpoint for price.  the 748 has 13 more jets and their second pump is a 1/2HP larger.

In all:  I have have minimal issues with the line in terms of units I have sold.  Additionally, Artesian has been great to me as a dealer.  Their warranty is good and pays out quick and I get parts/warranty items in a very timely manner.

I hope this helps.  I am not trying to sell you on the product.  Rather, I am just letting you know my professional opinion how I view the deal and what my interactions with Artesian Spas has been.

Good luck moving forward.

Hello - I just read this post and i know it's two years old, I was just quoted for a 748 B for 9,300  . What is a fair price for this tub as i think 9,300 is a joke!, thanks

That's definitely high for that model unless there is something above and beyond included with it.  I've seen the 748B sell from around $7k to $7500 with local delivery, cover, steps, starter kit, cover lift.

That what i thought , I think i'm going to counter the price to 7,800 , and walk if they say no. Again, i dont mind the salesman making money off the sale , but i'm not for the gouge. Thanks for your input

Now this post is another year older...

What is a fair price on an 850L?

I am being quoted $8000 with cover, lift, steps, delivery, initial chemicals.

I'm also interested in the 965L and wondering the difference between it and the Isla Margarita/Elite.  Any 2019 pricing available on these two?
