2005 Marquis Reward

The other day I wet tested the new 2005 Marquis Reward.  The following link has a picture of the spa:

I'll let some body else post the picture -- the post on the proceduse looked too complicated for me.  The last time I checked, Marquis did not show this info on their site.

The spa is great.  It has two jet pumps with two speeds and you can individually control each pump's speed.

I have been reading bulletin boards and wet testing spas for about 2 months.  This spa is now my number one choice.  I need help with what I should offer for the price.  It appears the msrp is $10,725.  From my prior research the msrp of the SA Euphoria was about the same and generally sold between $7,400 and $8,000 out the door with cover, cover lift, steps and start up chemicals.  What would be a fair or great price?  I live in the upper midwest.

For what it is worth, other spas I wet tested were from Dimension One; Hot Springs; Tiger River; Coleman; Artic; Baja; Saratoga; Beachcomber; and Artesian.  I looked at spas but did not wet test from Cal Spas; Coast; Sundance; Sweet Water: and Jacuzzi Premium.  I also spent an evening with the rep from ThermoSpas.  It is time to actually purchase one!

This could very well be my next tub! I have been looking to replace my older Marquis Journey for over a year now and I'm thrilled with this one. I still have yet to wet test it (did try it dry), we have had a very hectic end of year and I haven't even been able to fill one.

I'm sorry but I haven't actually priced it out yet but I believe we  will be selling it in the $8500 to $9000 range...

Very nice.  I wish someone would post a picture of the new exterior.  Maybe someone could teach 101 how to do it since he has one in his store......
