Bend-Pak auto lift pricing??

[Gvincent]

Why is it that everyplace online I went to had the exact same $2,890.00 price for the HD9 four post lift with no accessories.
Isn't this price fixing or something like that? where is the competition?
Does Bend-Pak set the sell price the same for all it's dealers??
something doesn't smell right

You're seeing the Minimum Advertised Pricing (MAP) set by the Mfg or distributor. The only way you are going to get better pricing is by calling dealers and getting quotes, just don't forget to ask about shipping costs too.

Try contacting asedeals.com they have good customer service and include shipping in the price..

It still doesn't seem right that all the dealers have to list the same price, where is the competition in that?
The price includes free?? shipping?
Maybe a local dealer will give a better price if I pick it up?
I just have to call around I guess.

I called a bunch of places and they all gave me the same price as what was listed on the website.
