Apparently you can get into a Super Deluxe High End Spa for just over $13,000! That's over $7,000 savings! :o

They look just like every other Super High End Deluxe do-it-yourself kit spa I see being sold on the side of the road or out of storage buildings, but more Super High End Deluxe expensive.

Oh Wow! $1600 + to ship to Oahu! Our dealers out there ship them over for a fraction of that - and they stock more than one tub at a time.

Of course, they also have the correct pictures and the prices are a bit less....

But then again, they are ETL-listed so perhaps we shouldn't try to compare....

Maybe he should hire Barney as a spokes person and then they could be "Super De-Duper High End"    ;)

"It takes advantage of the thermal heat barrier insulation better than any spa on earth"

My favorite part is the "Who We Are" portion:

"Vince and Pacific Spa Sales are based in Kaneohe. There is no Hawaii store at this time. Sales and information are via telephone,email and internet.

Vince is not employed by the Spa Specialist/Haven Spas

In most cases, the customer purchases the spa and accessories directly from Haven Spas and all warranty work etc. is through Haven Spas. "

So what the hell is Vince doing?!   "It is our goal to handle as many calls and issues locally as possible. "  Yes - anything except sales, information, and warranty service.

Don't forget the $200 + crating charge, in addition to the shipping.   You will pay almost $2000 addiitonal to get the spa, not includeing steps, cover and all the goodies.

and this is so nice...

" you are required to help remove it from the truck. This is standard shipping practice. If this is your choice you, will need several strong friends to help remove it from the truck. A fork lift may be available that comes along with the truck for an additional charge.


and it keeeps getting better...(want help setting up the spa?O

there is a fee of $350 for this service which is available on Oahu only. Fee is higher for difficult deliveries depending on how much man power is needed.


And it will take several months.


and all you get for service is this Vince.  Who doens't work for Jim Butthead, only  just a 100% comminsioned mouth piece.

good.lord.almighty.

Oops, I forgot, I'm not supposed to start a sentence with "Well."  Sorry salesdvl.

However, a sucker is born every minute, aren't they?  Someone has to sell to them.

Wonder how much this poor soul shucked out to get his franchise?

And I think you guys are being too hard here.  Don't forget that each and every supercustomdeluxefallsapartwithdaitIV comes with a free sunbleached shell and cabinet.  You can't put a price on that.
Well you could, but it wouldn't be anywhere near the $13K he's asking (plus multiple shipping charges), let alone the $20K+ he claims they're worth.

100% commissioned sales.  

It allows Dingleberry to claim he has reps in Hawaii.

There is no value added. Some poor soul bought one of these and is now posing for Dingleberry as an "independent rep"  when in fact, it's a guy with no spa experice, still in the "honeymoon" phase of his purchase.  It's a great illustration on how the company is run.  Buy a haven spa, and the repair guy, delivery guy, or what have you can be some joe off the street.   ::).  

Didja catch how he refers to Dingleberry as "Master" in the super high end description?  I spit my coffee up laughing.
