Soooo I just ordered the preconditioned vitamix with the 2 cook books and DVD package, from the official site for $299! The total payment came to $360 which included tax and expedited shipping (I'm too impatient) so it will be arriving tomorrow :grin: I also did the 3 payment plan so I paid $180 and then feb and march I will be billed for $90 :drunk: (anyone can get the payment plan they did NOT check my credit)
The pre-conditioned machines have been used for demonstrations and photo shoots. However it is ONLY the MOTOR BASE (which has been cleaned, inspected and repackaged) that has been used for promotional purposes. The container and everything else is BRAND NEW; so hygiene is not an issue. The deal also comes with a 7 year warranty.
The preconditioned 5000 is $299 and the 5200 which is latest version from the professional series is $379. Initially when I called the agent told me the 5000 was out of stock; so I told her that I would think about it and call her back. Anyways later I thought "eff it I'll just get the $379 one" which is still a pretty good deal so I called back. Well, when I rang back I got through to a different operator who was sooooooo helpful and he said that he would check another warehouse to see if they had any of the 5000's, even though he doubted that they would. Well lo and behold he came back and said that he was able to locate a red 5000 which I could purchase for $299. He also added a $25 discount to my order :grin: which is why I opted for the 2nd day shipping. Then I asked him If I could pay in installments and he was like "sure" and that was that!
Anyway for anybody who wants to place an order I have the helpful agents name and ext. no. so just PM me and I'll give it to you.
I can not wait to get this thing tomorrow I am so excited :yay:
