Price of Bullfrog A8

[KLloyd]

Hello All. 

Newbie here.  Like many folks, I have been on the hunt for a hot tub to add some comfort and extra leisure for the family.   I found a Connecticut dealer (1.5 hours away) who sales Sundance and Bullfrog.   He wants $17K for a Bullfrog A8 and $21K for a Sundance 880 Aspen.  Both include delivery, a cover and lift.  Do these prices seem reasonable, given the run on hot tubs across the country??  I’m considering a trip to wet test the spas later this week. 

Thanks in advance for your insights.

We almost ordered an A8 two weeks ago.  We were quoted $13,599 with an estimated delivery date of Nov 17.

We didn't pull the trigger because my wife had a thing for the D1 Amore Bay, which she subsequently wet tested and wasn't thrilled with.

If the dealer in CT has an A8 on hand or on its way, then I can understand the $17k price.  But if he's just going to put an order in the queue, I'd say he's gouging.

17 for an A8 is too much.  I paid 10,500 for an A7 and it included cover, delivery and lift as well.

I paide $13,900 for and A8L in Colorado over Memorial Day with a sale price and have a $500 rebate that will process after it is delivered. Price includes the normal cover, lift assist, steps and 6 months of chemicles.

The dealer quoted $18,000 as the non-sale price and was unwilling to negotiate below the sale price at all. I think it will be hard to get a deal with the current backlog, but I also question a lot of the prices you see on here. I am happy for the buyers if they are legit, but many seem too good to be true.

I paid 12000 on my A8D but Eos, stereo, circ pump, and Orchard color ($300 add on for that!) Pushed my total  to $13,450...not including sales tax of course. It all seems in the ballpark of the going rate for the A8 series of spas.

Bullfrog raised their prices significantly for 2021.  Since new orders wont arrive before then, 2021 pricing is now in effect.

We paid mid-$13k for an A-8 in Tennessee back in March. Just by dumb luck we got our order in before the rush. We were told it would be a 4 week wait for our tub and it eventually took about twice that. My understanding is that the wait is much longer now. We've been back to our dealer since delivery and they are now telling people January '21 are the projected deliveries.

It's February now
