I am new. Please just tell me if this booth is worth 10k used. It is a 2003 Instant Tan in good condition. It has 9 nozzles and is a 6 secnd spray. I know there are a lot of other sunless units out there, but I want the best price as well as the best booth.
Help,
Waves

Did you tan in it? What did you think? Did you have friends/others tan in it too? What did they think?

How much is a new Instant Tan? One member (benn35?) just found a used Mystic for 16K - is that a better or worse deal in your mind?

Can you buy a warranty from Instant Tan for this booth? If not, does that concern you? Do you know how to install it? If you bought new, would shipping and installation be included? Does that make this price seem better or worse to you?

Sunless is one of the VERY hardest to get "right". There have been MANY unsuccessful products out there on the market. I am not familiar with this one so I am just suggesting questions I would ask if it were me and I was considering buying this.

really? I have tried most, seen all and bought MYSTIC. I found this statement from the Mystic Tan marketing department to be quite true.

Mystic Tan IS "patented" - so that is a true and correct statement.

According to my dictionary, "proven" means something that has been subjected to testing procedures, shown as capable, dependable, etc - this also appears to be a true and correct statement.

"Best" according to my dictionary includes something that is "most suitable, most desirable, most favorable, most profitable". While many would consider "best" some sort of judgement, if it is the case that Mystic Tan is the most widely purchased sunless booth to-date or in some way can be shown to lead to greater profits than this also could be seen as a true and correct statement. I don't know if it is or isn't. In this particular case, at a minimum I imagine it reflects Missmojorising's personal experience with the booth -and I trust her to be making a true and correct statement of her experience and judgment with her Mystic Tan booth.

Bronz Buddy - there are many threads within this site talking about different sunless options and people's experience/opinions with them. Search, read, PM or ask people. Then research the options CAREFULLY, including TRYING any booth you might consider buying! If you are looking at used, and it isn't hooked up and available for you to try, then go home and monitor the results - if it was me, I wouldn't do it.

Ladies, while I am in no way trying to say you are both incorrect, I am trying to say that your statements are only your opinions. To say that a particular product is the best and stating that you have tried only "most" of the products out there, you cannot be categorical in your statements.

Just admit that it is in your opinion that it is the best and we can agree.

ok,here's what I will admit....I did pass on the "spray tan" aparatus made out of garden hose and bubble wrap at The Discount Day Spa..I'll put Mystic, with their brand name recognition, quality results and customer service up against any other spray tan out there.

Good, then come and try mine. Lets place you in a real quality booth then you can say you've tried all the others.
