Jacuzzi 2005s ??? and $500 Rebate

[johnnythunders]

I guess there are no new improvments with the Jacuzzi 315 - 385s for the  2005 year?But on their website they are giving you a $500 rebate till may 15th...I guess why mess with a good product if you don't have too lol.Jt

Hey I heard that rebate thing, my local dealer is extending it to the end of May giving me enough time to wet test the 365, do you own one? How do you like it?

[johnnythunders]

I have had mine since May of 2004 and i enjoy it. Since its getting a bit warmer i will need to lowers the temp a bit.Remeber don't pay over $6500 with rebate, and get free shipping ,chems, cover, stepsYou will need a cover lifter and maybe pay for it but maybe they can throw it in too....Hope you are a better shopper then me.I think there are many great brands on this site but i really think Jacuzzi gives yea more for yea money.Jt

It is NOT a "rebate" nor is it a "coupon" it is a marketing tool to get you into the store. If it were a manufacturers rebate, the dealer would have zero authority to "continue" it for you. If it were a "coupon" that would imply the manufacturer was reimbursing the dealer for the $500.00, this I can asure you is NOT happening. It is nothing more than a marketing tool. I think Jacuzzi is a darn good spa, but you can make or get the same deal with or with out the "coupon rebate." Dont believe me, tell your dealer you are buying RIGHT NOW and give me your best price with check book in hand, when he gives you his best price, spring the coupon on him and see what happens.

I went to a chain to get my Jacuzzi and they gave me a price of $6499 without coupon,when i called the next day before i bought it he said he had to go to a manager to appove it.I beleave the guy because he was pretty firm the day before,he told me i need to bring in the coupon in.I felt screw him so i called up the same dealer but in another part of town and he told me not to worry about the coupon he will make it up on his computer.Went back there a few months and told the saleslady and she was annoyed not at me but the other store for taking business away from them.Jt

Reminds me of the Free Stereo promotion that Sundance put on last year.

At least the http://www.jacuzzi50.com promotion is real! I hope somebody wins that dang convertable. I don't care if it's from my store or not, I want to see a winner!

The convertable is real, but if a customer scratches a ticket and wins "$200 off your purchase!"  is it "real"?  As in, the dealer actually reduces the best deal price by $200?

[Wisoki]

"Coupon not valid with any other offer, see dealer for details." No different that any other vehicle or grocery coupon out there. And still, the $50,000 convertable is real!

Grocery Coupons are "Real".  The store will send the coupons into the distributor and get 100% reimbursed by them.

So are you saying the dealer will be reimbursed by the manufactuer and be able to truely reduce this "winners" cost by the full amount with no loss to the dealer?

When I was dealing with the Marquis dealer, I brought in a coupon for $200.00 off from their web-site. He said that was already included in the price.

I'd assume it works like that but a lot of people know that going in I think. I would imagine that the dealers would incorporate any coupons from the scratchers before quoting i.e. "before I quote you, let me give you one of these scratchers and let's see if we can get you some more $$ off. ".
