am i getting the runaround or what

[KARNIE]

i have called a couple dealers and told them i would like to order a 719 with a 225 merc add the tandem trailer w/brakes. and all of them are 48,000-53000 with no electronics installed cause i have my own. crazy thing is i would still have to drive 300-400 miles to pick it up that i dont mind. it seems to me that every time i happen to mention that i was military the base price would jump 8-9 grand. i got it. but if anyone happens to know a good dealer let me know cause that is absurd for that boat. i love the boat but not those prices.

Call Junior @ Sportsman Center in Livingston, Tn. Their Number is 931-823-5388 and a toll free # 877-400-0442, Fax 931-823-7147 E-mail sprotsmancenter@yahoo.com
I have bought two Phoenix 721's from Jr and not a better person to deal with.

As far as those dealers raising the price when they find out you are in the service; for one I would not deal with them at all. They should be giving military discounts not raising the price

as serious as a heart attack!

I thought the tandem trailer was standard on the 719.

Also the mid-upper $40's is dead on with what Junior was telling me for the 719 when I ordered my 619 and 200 SHO, honestly I'd believe $50k's if the 12' price increases have taken effect on the boat and engine.

I also find it very hard to believe any dealer would jack the price up $8k when you tell them your in the service. That is unless they aren't American!!!

I just drove 430 miles to take delivery of one for similar reasons. Try Clinton at Berkeley Outdoors. He is a board sponsor and will take amazons care of you. If you want a price that's more than fair, and to be spoiled before AND after you take delivery, buy from Clinton.

... the guy bought my meals, payed for my hotel, and stayed in constant contact before and after the sale.

as Ed said call Junior and he'll help you get into the boat you want...as for the 719 w/225 merc the high 40's seems a little out of line...if that's what they are going for then i'll sell my 719 w/225 SHO for $50K, really i'll sell it for that...

Sportsman Ctr has a 719 pro setting by the front door with a 225 Pro XS, tandem axles, ready to go right now. Beautiful red and white boat. Just give Junior a call. He'll probably deliver it to you. If texas dealers don't need your business we will be happy to help a service man in Tenn. Thanks for your service to our country, and good luck in your boat hunt.

I whole-heartedly agree with Ed's comment:

"As far as those dealers raising the price when they find out you are in the service; for one I would not deal with them at all. They should be giving military discounts not raising the price "...

WELL PUT, Ed.

Also look on Boattrader.com and look at the prices on some new 2010's and some demos - I think some of the 250 powered 721s were around 40k!
