When I was buying mine, I got quotes all over the place for different items. So I then realized I need to be shopping the bottom line. So my advice would be if yr bottom line isnt where you want to be then ask for the number you think is fair or just get 3 quotes and go from there.

PJF, to be honest I dont even remember. I dont have my quotes here with me.
What was yr total bottom line price for what you wanted?

The joystick controller for my CT335 was quoted seperatly for $880.
Bobcat's pricing scheme seems to be ala carte. Ok you want the loader, did you want a bucket with that?

On my CT230 there were 2 packages "standard" and "deluxe". Both packages have the joystick as a standard item. The difference between the two is that the deluxe package has the mid-pto and rear SCV. The standard package was $635 while the deluxe package was around $1100. The dealer didn't itemize the joystick as a single line item because it was under the standard package option. Essentially, the joystick is grouped into a package but I had a hard time understanding what else was included in the standard package other than the joystick. I agree that each dealer writes quotes differently and some may/may out itemize each item as your dealer did. It really comes down to the bottom line.

Lest we forget; Rick clears 3500 dollars, more, for the same tractor you guys sell. Only difference being an orange coat. So it's safe to bet that his joystick comes with a hefty price tag.
Hey Rick
I know I have bugged you in the past for prices, but with the higher cdn dollar and with the incentives from Bobcat my local dealer (15 minutes away) is now within $1k off your USD price. He can't beat your price, but your also 4 hr drive away.
If they didn't have the incentives and the cdn dollar wasn't so high then I wouldn't think twice of the drive, not only because of price, but your reputation for service. I have tried dealing with my local kioti dealer but his prices are extremely high and his reputation for service is not great.
