Welcome to our forum.
Don't get me wrong...I'm glad you enjoy your spa and I hope you do for many years but to suggest that this is an ethical way to conduct business is ludicrous.Steve
Steve and Drew, I hear what you guys are saying. I guess I never thought of Thermospas that way as taking advantage of other people who were unsuspecting of the overpricing. I have been very happy this past year knowing that I got the tub for what I negotiated them to. Thanks for opening my eyes to watch out for companies like this in the future. Anyway, I still love my Park Avenue tub.
Not to mention it will be a while before I have to pay for any service since I bought the Thermospa with the 10 year full warranty and 20 year shell warranty.
Off the top of my head, I think Dimension 1 has a lounger like that. (Its been 4 years since I shopped)Where do you live?
There’s making a reasonable profit to maintain business, and then there’s price gouging! There is a distinct difference in business ethics between those two comparisons.
No fan of Thermospa but you sell a product for what the market will bare. If I had a product that cost me $1 but I could sell it for $100, why would I sell it for less?
Thanks for the quick replies! Guess if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Really liked their Park Avenue spa with a double wide lounge. Any other spas have such a feature? Any recommendations on a 5-person spa with lounge?Hope to go looking this weekend for something locally. Thanks again!
I never said it was ethical what they do as far as pricing, nor did I say that any company that does this a little or in Thermospas case alot was unethical. I just stated that in any purchase like this you have to get the seller "You" down to your bottom dollar. I even pointed out in my original response that I didn't like the pricing structure of Thermospas. But, because I was smart enough to negotiate them down to their bottom dollar, I got the tub I wanted, and I love it.
"Extended Warranties Bring Total Peace of MindThermo-Spas offers a three year "bumper to bumper" warranty that covers virtually all parts and labor. This means you never open your checkbook and we never leave you stranded. Over 95% of all Thermo-Spas hot tubs come with an extended spa warranty. Our unbeatable spa warranties are a happily-ever-after ending to your hot tub story."Why would anyone need an extended warranty if the spa has this great 10yr/20yr warranty? http://www.thermospas.com/features/warranty.aspx
