This was a figure to compensate for shipping prices already built in to MSRP which has already significantly increased over the past year while shipping prices have dropped. She said freight pricing has come down a lot and the surcharge should no longer appear on most invoices. Unless the dealer order occurred when rates were at their highest, this charge should not be included. The $1400 manufacturer surcharge some dealers are including are not valid anymore and not charged dealers anymore. Shipping may be higher if the dealer accepted the shipment in more than one piece. Dealer freight pricing at the time of shipment should be comparable to U-Ship pricing at that time. The closer dealers are not charged as much. I just got off the phone with a BRP rep about this and she said that the averaging freight cost is not exactly but somewhat true.
#SEA DOO SWITCH DELIVERY DATE PLUS#
I found a dealer 4 hours away and paid MSRP plus tax and license, no hassle, no drama. I bought a new motorcycle last year and all the dealers within 2 hours of me were adding a markup, prep, freight and doc fees and I called them out on their BS and told them exactly why I would not be buying from them because of an average of $1,500 markup over MSRP. You might have to drive some but you will find an honest dealer that will give you an honest price and honest fees. My best advise is if you are looking to buy is call them out on their B.S. This is why car dealers were calling it a "market adjustment" or "dealer added fee". The only thing that is legal is if they just call it "dealer markup" or "dealer fee" or something similar. They are not allowed to call it prep or assembly. Now, most dealers either don't know it is illegal or just don't care. The manufacturer requires them to do it to verify the craft and validate the warranty. The manufacturer already pays them to prep the craft, 2. It appears they can now charge whatever they want.Īs far as setup, "prep" or whatever they call it, technically it is illegal for them to charge for that as, 1. So I went and checked the Yamaha WaveRunner site and no freight listed, just price and "does not include freight".
I’m willing to pay to get what I want it’s just a bit deceptive either by BRP or any dealer to lead you to believe that picture on the website represents the “basic” Cruise model before adding any options.You sparked my interest so I looked at the seadoo site and they no longer list the flat rate freight like motorcycles and cars, it just says, "Commodity surcharge starts at $465". It’s NOTHING like what is shown on the website. If the dealers charge 4K for assembly and prep then all you get is the basic 18‘ 170hp Cruise with 2 rear seats, no corner tables a bolster, the Garmin, a wind deflector, a swim platform. PERFECT.īut I can’t seem to get a list of what options are included for that 39K price. It IS a nice riding pontoon with the larger 24” toons on it but I want the versatility that the Switch offers for transporting, fun, fishing and just putting around. That 25’ party barge was too much to trailer around to the many inland lakes we have here. I have a ‘97 25’ Crest Savannah Gold w/40hp Evinrude (450 hours) that runs great and is in good condition sans funiture and a brand new bunk trailer that I’m selling this spring before getting the switch. I’m not too keen on the 230hp supercharged version due to maintenance costs on those and things that can go very bad quickly if those washers explode and puke chunks into your crankcase. It checks all my boxes for having fun on the water. Handling, maintenance, performance, configurable, trailering. I really like everything I see about the switch. From what I read above it sounds like it’s just the base cruise with just their included options for that price. Delivery to be around June/July 2022 I was told.
I just got what iI was told was the last allocation for my dealer here in Michigan to be filled at a price of 39K OTD for the 18’ 170hp Cruise.
