Hi,

I just bought a x730, and I want a 52 Broom. I am in NJ, and reach out to dealers in NJ, NY, and NH, and I am being quoted MSRP and over MSRP.

In this environment, are the brooms in high demand (other than its snow season)?

Should I be expecting an 8 percent discount? Or am I out of touch?

Yep, out of touch.

Steel prices are through the roof, shipping costs are up, production delays, shortages of inventory. Maybe you’ve been living under a rock but there’s this thing called Covid that’s supposedly making it really hard to do much of anything.

MSRP is probably a good deal. Kubota tacked on a steel surcharge late last year with very little warning.
