I don't have time to go tubing anymore so these centraltexascat summers are getting old real quick. And this one has been fairly mild

Ouch. Bad time for that. Ye olde supply and demand will cost you bigly.

Missouriscribe · « **Reply #436 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:08:46 PM »

are bids higher this time of year? I understand installers being busy, but the price of the units themselves can't cost more can they?

The Big Train · « **Reply #437 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:12:45 PM »

I'm not in the pocket of big HVAC but I would assume standard supply and demand principles would apply.

Missouriscribe · « **Reply #438 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:19:13 PM »

are you saying there's a shortage of air conditioners available during warmer months? Or is the shortage merely labor? We've been assured by most of the companies we've had give bids that scheduling isn't a problem. I'll wait another 3 months if they really vary prices based on the season...MOOSE! (wrong thread)

Well, I mean, in season for virtually anything is going to be more expensive. That's why you get such great deals on virtually everything in their "off-season".

interesting. I wonder if this is true in all fields, TBT. For instance, if I hire an accountant on January 5th, that's probably noticeably cheaper than a few weeks late when most people are just getting their returns ready, huh.

The Big Train · « **Reply #441 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:34:07 PM »

Being a blatant smartass isn't helping your cause. I had sweats on today pretty much all day because my AC was on so high.

Missouriscribe · « **Reply #442 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:35:04 PM »

probably bought those in summertime, huh. Good thinking.

The Big Train · « **Reply #443 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:36:00 PM »

No I just turned down my fully functional AC to about 65 and I got a little cold so I busted out the sweats I bought at full price this past winter.

Missouriscribe · « **Reply #444 on:** July 22, 2017, 09:37:04 PM »

oh. Never mind then.

Labor shortage. Equipment stays steady.

Your best price break is February and March. Sometimes you'll get deals in the fall.

Would you say Feb/Mar are the "off season"?

Essentially.
