What a Deal ?

Have you ever had a low price deal that is so good that it is not worth the problems that you have after you paid for the equipment or service. If you had, you are not alone. Millions every year end up paying for a great deal that turns out to be “just too good to be true”.

Everybody wants a “better deal” when purchasing air-conditioning units. It is like purchasing a new auto. It is not something that you do everyday. You are now involved in the seller’s market that can put you at risk. The pricing terms, operation effects, add-ons, and capacity are the seller’s game.

In years past, it was difficult to check out the sales pitch on your deal. Today, it is as easy as surfing on the internet. Type in the name of the salesperson or the company on your server and you may find out a lot about the great deal. If you are not the first dupe, you may find it is not such a great deal.

The best deal is one that you have researched and asked around from the people that know about the equipment and the installation location. Remember, if the deal is only good today it is something that you need to run away from before you add your name to the internet-complaining list”.
