Welcome to our forum.
This is my first post, but I have been lurking on this board for some time. My husband and I are seriously considering buying a spa very soon. We really liked the Hot Spring the best and are deciding between a Sovereign & a Vanguard. My problem? I can't seem to find what the HS models generally cost so I can find out if I am getting a fair deal. I am located in Kansas. I did some searching on the Hot Springs Vanguard & Sovereign for pricing, and I keep hearing "between 7-9K seems about right". I'm sorry, but 2K to me is a HUGE difference. I feel like I am buying a car...you know, that feeling in the pit of your stomach that you may be getting ripped off. :-/I'm just really frustrated, maybe I am not looking in the right place. I have looked on this board and can't find pricing from anyone in my area. Can anyone straight up tell me what a decent price is on either of these models in Kansas-just the spa, without the lift, etc? Thanks so much in advance-I really appreciate any help -Frustrated in Kansas
She was just asking what a fair price is. Not saying she does not want the dealer to make a fair profit or that she wants to buy a cheap tub frm costco! I know the feeling nothing wrong with wanting to know a fair price. I have a hard time understanding the corolation between the price you pay and the service you should expect or deserve.
The reason this whole question came up is because when I asked about the prices after my wet test (alone), I was told by the salesperson that she would have to ask. I should also mention that my sales person was very nice and took the time to answer all of my questions. Then she came back with someone who quoted me a price. My husband went by there the next day and did not tell them he was with me-did a wet test and was quoted a price far less expensive.
