    Question Anyone else get an email with crazy pre-order pricing?

    Hello fellow SpyderLover members,

    I recently received an email from BRP (11/24/2021) encouraging me to pre-order my Spyder while there was still time. Since I had pre-ordered my 2022 back in August I wasn't concerned. However, I did click on few buttons and boy did I get a surprise. Speaking only for the RT line up prices had shot up $5800 for each of the RT, RTL and Sea To Sky models. The logistics or commodity fee has gone from $400 to $520. I did my due diligence by searching the BRP web site and the internet in general. I came up empty handed as to what was driving the huge increase in MSRP since August. Then I discovered another oddity. If you went in to the CanAm Spyder site via BRP.Com the information presented was the August MSRP pricing. Only if I researched pricing through the link in the email did I get the inflated prices. I had to make a trip to my dealer on 12/3 to pick up an oil change kit for my snowmobile so I showed him what I'd found. He was as befuddled as I was. His pricing showed nothing has changed since August. He made a query just for s--ts and grins. Low and behold he discovered that the pricing I was being linked to was Canadian pricing even though I'm a registered with a US address. Guess I'm happy to be a US citizen in this case! At least on paper. Mystery solved.

    Canadian $ vs US $. Currency conversion, not price change.

    Same thing seems to be happening all over.

    RE: Guitars Epiphone EJ 200 (a top of the line version) comparable to Gibson J200 which is currently about $4000.00. Epiphone just doubled their price. $499.00 to $999.00. Always wondered why the Epi EJ was so cheap. I have one and it was a fantastic steal for the $499 price.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I will post a photo as soon as I take delivery which is a best guess of March 2022. 6 days into December and I think my dealer said nearly 70 or 90 snowmobiles still haven't been delivered. Applying that to the Spyders I'll be very lucky if I do get mine in March.

    Wondering if the down payment and the commodity surcharge are refundable if they were preorder expenses?
