Most manufacturers have passed down at least (2) wholesale prices increases + Covid related shipping/packaging/etc. surcharges in the past 12 months, there is rumbling of another 10% coming soon as well so expect everything to go up again, spas that were $10,000 2 years ago are now selling for $13,000 give or take. I saw a comment above mentioning 6-9 months, I can tell you right now NOBODY will be 'caught up' in 6-9 months or anywhere close to that date, it's going to be 18-24 months at the earliest before these supply chains and manufacturing can catch up and of course like mentioned above the pricing definitely will not 'come down' If you want a spa just best to place your order and wait for it in my opinion.
