This will probably piss you all off, but employees of Philips (of which I am a former) got a Xmas deal last year...$199.

What's your point, David? Should we all get at job at Philips so we can buy Pront's cheap?
Every employer I know of has some kind of incentives for their employees.

Guaranteed Lowest price on Prontos and docking stations.
Just call or email me with a legitimate quote from another authorized dealer who has them in stock, and I'll beat it.
We have a physical store, in the same location for 19 years. We're reliable, trustworthy, and we will be here long term to assist you.

Just got a call from my Phlips dealer. He told me to change my price on the pronto that we were selling them to cheap!! with the docking station. Or my Philips stock would be removed. The price that we were selling them were $349.95 with the
Remote, PC Cable & Docking station. We have met alot of nice customers by selling the prodcuts and hopefull have answered some of your questions.
I still have units in stock and if I have quoted you the $349.95 price you will receive that price.
Once agin I thank you for all of your business and your friendly & help-ful posting. We still have about 20 Docking Stations & Remotes in stock.
If you have any questions or need a price please call 219-464-2571 Ask for Pronto Sales.
Once again, TRYING TO PASS ON A FAIR PRICE TO THE END USER AND WE GET IN TROUBLE.
THANKS AGAIN
ERIC & KEVIN

SORRYto post another message here, but we have promised so many people the PRICE of $349.95 for the docking station & remote control with pc cable that WE ARE GOING TO KEEP THAT PRICE and pay the damages later. Why should we have to advertise it for MAP pricing? If you do visit our site www.cartronix.com you may see the price as $399.00 for both unit's, ask for the $50.00 first time buyers rebate to get the $349.95 price.

Sorry to take up your time again, I just want to be fair and honest with our customers and future customers. Thanks Again.

Huh? It doesn't sound right! Why would a Philips dealer want to sell the Pronto at a higher price? So what is the NEW price of the remote and docking station ERIC & KEVIN?

Basically, they are saying they can not advertise the pronto with docking station for $349.95, so it is advertised on their site at $399.95. I talked to Cartronix this afternoon and they said they are know offering a first time buyers rebate on all remote control packages for mentioning the internet and that is $50.00. Which made my cost $349.95 to order both. They seemed like good guys when I placed my order.

I congratualte Kevin & Eric for bringing down the price of the Pronto for all of us. It is a shame that Philips wants to boss around a company to force them to sell them for what they want. Lastly the $50 rebate is a clever idea to keep getting the Pronto at that good price. Probably some Philips dealer via this site saw that they could not compete with this great price and dobbed them into to Philips.
I again support Kevin and Eric and than them for all there help in getting my Pronto and the great customer response on the Phone.
