I see where all you guys who want the prices posted are coming from, but
you're missing one important point--call your local Rodgers Dealer and get a
price from him. If you don't trust the price you get--you think it's
inflated--that's your problem and you have to deal with it. Otherwise you
can get a price and you can bet they want the installation to reflect
favorably on them. Having just endured the price war so far as buying a new
organ for the church I will say your best choice is to talk to the dealer or
the rep in your area because they want you to be happy and buying on price
alone is not, in my opinion, the best way to insure your longterm
satisfaction with the instrument you buy. Also, you may find at the end of
the calendar year they want to reduce their inventory and you will get an
unbelievably good price--if you're looking at the list price you may not
know that.

Maybe I need to be more specific. There are base
prices for each model and for the modules. However,
since every installation is different with respect to
speakers used, amps used, wall mounting, chamber
installation, freight charges, distance to
installation, warranty offered by local dealer,
internal speaker organs with external amps and
speakers, interfacing with pipe organs, special
finishes, custom finishes, different keyboards, etc.,
it makes it hard to say what a product might cost.
All of this affects what the price of a particular
instrument might be and car dealers don't have many of
these aspects to deal with in the sale of a car.
Therefore there isn't a standard price so to speak.
Most dealers won't quote prices even over the phone. I
have not taken this position to be coy or anything
like that, its just hard to say what a price of a
model is since so many things affect that price that
are unknown until we get into the project.
