What was your very first post on this forum?

Here's mine:

Well, I tried to go back and get it but I couldn't go past 425 posts.  Oh well, it went something like this:

"I'm a HotSpring Spa dealer in Longview, TX and I've been reading this forum for a few weeks now.  There is a lot of valuable information on here and I have gained a great deal of knowledge.  I probably won't have much to say on here but will check in from time to time."

Some 800+ posts later, I guess I still haven't said much.

First post? I don't think I can go back the 5 or 6 years to find it.

Furthest back is post #36;

Actually, I find it kinda funny how so many "SUPOSED" independent tests have been done, yet no one has EVER produced a copy of a single legetimate test.

If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Here's mine

just purchased a Beachcomber 750 floor model.  I assumed the Hush Pump came with it as all the BC tubs I was inquiring about had it, I just called and was informed that the tub I purchased did not have the Hush Pump.  The question I have is should I be concerned and how beneficial is the Hush pump really?

I was on the forum for awhile by this post just never asked a question till after I purchased, what a dumb ass I was...oh yeah still am

You must be clairvoyant!  No wonder you like playing poker so much, you definitely have an advantage.

Now I see why you're trying to get me to play.  I can't even read my own mind.  It'd be like taking candy from an unarmed baby. ;D

Hi all.  

I would like to start by saying that I've been viewing the posts here for a few days now, and have gotten GREAT information!!!  Thanks to all, even though you didn't know you were helping.

Here is my problem.  I wet tested Jacuzzi 360, and I loved it until then.  I floated in almost ALL of the seats.   I have a wet test scheduled on an L.A. Spa HEET model for tomorrow.  I tried a search on it, and can't find any info.  Anyone have any thoughts?  Also looking at Sundance Altamar.  The dealer sold the one off the floor, so have to wait until they get another to wet test it.  They have an Optima available to test, but it is bigger than I want, and I would rather test the model I would buy.  Any thoughts on the floating issue with the Altamar?  I don't have many other options to choose from, so I wanted to hear your thoughts.

BTW thanks for encouraging people to wet test.  I would NEVER have dreamed of getting in a spa on the floor!!!  But it was worth it, or I would have bought the Jacuzzi, and I would have regretted it!!!

Thanks in advance for your thoughts, and time.

And #1 for da terminaator;

 on: 12/08/04 at 3:18pm  
Hello!

I wanted to introduce myself.  I'm the Branch Manager of a HS dealer in Longview, TX (northeast near the Louisiana border).  We have 4 stores in E. Texas and Shreveport, LA.  We have sold Watkins products exclusively for 20 years and are a spa dealer only.  No pools, billiards, furniture, etc.

I ran across this board a few weeks ago and have found some invaluable information from many of the members.  It has been a real eye-opener to go back and read most of the relevant posts here and has helped me in my sales presentations of late.

I probably won't have a great deal to say on here but I will be checking the board daily.  If I can be of service to anyone, please feel free to give me a holler.

Thanks!

Chris O.

Too long ago to remember, I sure it was some sort of pro Jacuzzi or anti ozone comment though. Whew, how life tosses us around?!?

He's still around. Every once in a while someone mentions his name on Doc's site and a couple of days latter you'll see a post from him pop up. I think KL Enterprises is stil an entity also, if Kens lurking, he'll correct me if I'm wrong.
