I was out today trying to dicker with prices. I have dealt with this dealership for 14years now. (JD 855 was my first purchase in 86' 2nd purchase was a JD 4200HST purchased in1999) So he is known to be the biggest and most prominent New Hampshire dealer. (NO SALES TAX IN NH) And the price I keep getting on a 4300 / HST / 430Loader / Calcium Loaded Turf Tires / Folding Rops / and #272 Rear Finish Mower.... $26,500 !!!!! (Oh! And that price includes me keeping my 73" HeavyDuty Bucket from my 4200. I have nice welded on hooks on my 73" HD bucket and that is why I want to keep that... Now, I told him that was High, he got the owner out, and they are telling me that they add "SETUP COST" on top of the list price. And that is why they are wanting $26,500 for the tractor. I called a smaller New Hampshire Dealer and he gave me a price of $22,000 totalfor the same machine with #272 rear mower deck. I showed the big dealer my quotes and he went thru the roof and !still wouldn't come down on price. And the owner at the bigger dealership acted all mad at the otherdealer, like he was breaking the Brotherhood Code of Dealing John Deere Tractors. (or made him out to be likehe deals grey-black market tractors) And the bigger Dealer kept giving me the line about getting it serviced at the other dealership? I have talked to a few other people who are very happy with the smaller dealership inservice. And the other smaller dealer is fully authorized. And the Big dealer only wanted to give me $17,000 for trade in value on my previous 4200 HST / 420 Loader / 72" Belly Mower / Loaded Turf Tires / New Axle / 300 hours. It is in great shape, but just wanted to upgrade to a little bigger machine,(not satisfied with HP on 4200 HST) and no longer wanted to have the belly mower.. I want more clearance under the machine. What should I be getting for a deal here in New Hampshire for the 4300 Hydro Package I want? And is this setup chargeon top of! list price a bunch of Bull or what?????

Jason, The BIG dealership is trying to rape you (price wise). Thats why he's a BIG dealership. The other small dealer sounds like he's in the ball park. David ....

Jason my local big dealer did the same to me He qouted me $25,987.37 for a JD4400 with loader and 72" mid mount mower with R4's and extra wheel weights
I new there was a price difference between JD & NH but $6,500 is rediculous so I went to a dealer further up the road and got a price of $21,500 but thats not delivered and its 125 miles away for that price difference I should buy a bigger trailer and pick it up myself and still have money leftover compared to the so called big dealer ;-) ....
