Re: THIS IS ALLEGEDLY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS

What the heck does URI have to do with this??? NOTHING! Why did you drag them into this??

The only thing I've gotten out of all your drama Springbok, is that it is my opinion (allegedly) that you need to spend some time with a team of psychiatrists. Alot of time.

Re: THIS IS ALLEGEDLY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS

When you spend 54k of your hard earned money on new equipment that doesnt work for about 3 years, and you have a frustrating time getting the selling party to make your equipment perform like it should and show very little interest after changing parts twice in the beginning which didnt solve the problem,and having a hard time getting the company to return your calls or even send a tech when you are a hour and a half drive, it is a very bad situation for you and your clients. My readings averaged between 60-70 on solarmeters 5.0 at the hp lamp and i had to resort to changing lamps at 150-200hrs. i have not come online about this situation for obvious fear the situation could get worse. The beds were both finally fixed about +/_20 something months. Times change quick and we have huge need for a true 360 hp, so unfortunately i am gonna have to sell the beds now that they are finally working :).End of chapter. Hope every salon owner has a great 2008!!

Re: THIS IS ALLEGEDLY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS

I herd from a good source that this story is true, but heck this whole tanning industry is shady. We have disty's saying we have to charge more because of the Euro beating the Dollar, when that isnt true and the disty's know it.

They are all "locked in" on a certain price because the Eruo is beating the Dollar. They act like they cant discount lotion lower than 45-55% off salon price. Thats a big lie too.

So if anyone is not willing to do there own homework then dont get into this industry.

Re: THIS IS ALLEGEDLY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS

you honestly believe the change in the euro from .80 to 1.40 has not changed pricing?

Re: THIS IS ALLEGEDLY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS

Heck no because the bed makers "LOCK A FIX PRICE FOR THEM"

Its almost like a 30yr fixed rate no matter how high rates get their rate always remains the same. And if you think that this isnt true for the disty's then I have a bridge I want to quit claim deed to you its out in NY

Re: THIS IS ALLEGEDLY VERY IMPORTANT NEWS

been in the buisness 13+ years and have 23 salons,so believe me when i tell ya no one gets permanent long term pricing.Why do you think they are asking 10k more for the beds compared to 3 years ago?I have seen what a certain hp line cost to land here with what the euro is now and what they cost was back then before it flipped.
