Rainshadow Immortal Blanks-new prices

[MickD]

Most carriers of Rainshadow blanks are offering the Immortal line (at least most of it) at a new pricing level, from 30-38% lower than previous pricing. In addition Utmost Enterprises has additional discounts.  The Immortal line is a beautifuly finished (Chrome titanium) line of very high performance blanks.  They are now within the reach of most of us for our special rods.  Very good news.

Great deal on amazing blanks!  Ive only built one Immortal (and 5-6 eternitys) but I'll be ordering more for sure.

out of curiosity , i looked up Utmost Ent. website and was checking out the Eternity blanks , the 7'6'' Mh , Utmost lists the MSRP price on the blank at $259.48 and saying to contact them for additional savings . then i looked up GETBIT 's website on the same exact blank and they list the MSRP at $219.47 !!! sounds as though Utmost is jacking up the price then trying to say they give you a big dicount , sounds like false sales advertising , Michael , i don't know if you shop there but thought you'd like to be aware of that ..

Ive built four rods on Immortal blanks, and will be building more, for myself if not for anybody else. They are very nice blanks. At the new price, I have to call them excellent.

Utmost is just listing the suggested retail price. So they're not upping the price at all, Getbit is just being openly aggressive in their pricing.
Both companies are well known for great customer service.

We’ve always felt that the Immortals were great blanks and one of the best buys. Though one of our sales reps went through the numbers and found a way for us to lower the price… as we want to get these awesome blanks into more hands. The new pricing is very competitive with other companies and we feel these are now the best buy for a truly high performance blank.

so what's the real MSRP ??????

We don’t publish an MSRP price, letting dealers choose their own pricing. As said, Utmost is at our the suggested pricing and not above.

that doesn't make sense for consumers

I don't really care what the MSRp is; what I'm interested in is what it costs me to buy it.  The Immortals don't cost me as much now as they used to.  They are great blanks, and I agree that at the current prices, they are really good values.  The titanium chrome finish is beautiful and very versatile, allowing almost any color thread to look good.  Try a merlot or garnet without CP and you'll have a rich "black cherry" color, trim with silver metallic, and you have a very handsome, classy, build.  The ned rig is very popular now, and the 7' 2" med lite walleye rod works very well with it.  WS72-ML.

Ask RW how he likes that rod. I just ordered another Immortal, for another mod.

Makes sense to me. I wouldn't walk into the first car dealership on the block and pay sticker for a car. I would do my research and shop for the best deal. Thanks batson for giving the consumer the ability to do so.

i am all for low prices , i was just wondering why there are two different MSRP prices ! that price is supposedly set by the manufacturer , and i'm not talking about the final price as i want the best deal too

for example if the real MSRP is $150 for a blank but a dealer says the blank has an msrp of $250 but says it has a big sale with 30 % off , then the price will be $175 , still higher than the real MSRP , so it gives way to misleading advertising , that's my point ....

Big Bait, read the FAQS on the Utmost website.  Lemonade,  read the sign!  Just kidding, Happy Holidays. Also, if you can get a blank shipped cheaper I'd like to know where.
