Hot Spring price in Hungary
« on: January 19, 2014, 02:35:22 pm »
Dear Sirs, Ladies

We decide to buy a Hot Spring tub like Envoy in Hungary.
But price is terrible: 3.9 millon HUF that about $17 000 with discount!
What is Your opinion about normal price in Europe?
Sorry but my English is very weak.

I don't know about European prices however you probably have all the US Hot Spring dealers salivating!  ;D

Prolly not. Most US dealers sell 10 to 20 times more spas annually that most European dealers
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

And that tub has to take a long cruise to get there. Then a long road journey.

I ship containers to Europe with some frequency, and the price isn't all that bad. Roughly $3000 for 40' container. I would guess one could get at least 10 spas in one. That makes for only $300 per spa to land it. Then the container needs to get trucked to the final destination. I can't see that being over $1000. The big hit in a lot of European countries is the import taxes. That and the dealers need to make a lot more profit per unit to stay in business, as they're selling a lot fewer spas and their fixed overhead is a lot higher.

Two question:
- How much $ the Hot Spring Envoy's normal enduser price in US?
- Hot Spring Envoy is a recommended quality tub? Good choice?

That's a very nice tub. They get a lot of different prices across the US 9-11 g's?
