Wes Ellis Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Hello, Just wondering if when you are looking at a new Fish House would you pay a little more to have the fish house ready to go? New Battery installed,all the lights checked, tanks filled and checked for leaks, that kind of stuff?Thanks Wes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes, Don't take this the wrong way, but if I was looking at a NEW fish house... you better believe these things should be done already! No way I'm taking delivery if they are not. It seems absurd to me to even think about selling a new house that isn't safe (possible propane leaks)? Lights better be working! IT'S A NEW HOUSE! Maybe I don't understand the angle you are coming from, but these don't seem like options to me, necessities yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndRo Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I have to agree with Gus. There should be no up charge for any of those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawg Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Yup, what they said.Being as I'm close to you I bet I know what outfit is trying to do that but won't mention a name unless you want to share it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip_Ripper Guy Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Couldn't agree more with the other guys. Lights should work....it's brand new. Propane lines shouldn't have ANY issues, and the dealer should be MORE than happy to check that out, free of charge. A battery takes 30 seconds to install. I'd move on down the road if they are trying to charge you for any of the above...but that's just me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawg Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I don't know of any that sell them with full gas tanks, and if you didn't buy a battery you won't get a battery. Nothing is free but that's not what your question sounded like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 My Salem Ice Cabin came ready to hit the ice. Propane filled, Heater running, Battery installed and charged, and a walk through showing how everything works from brakes to tail lights, lowering and raising, couch to cabinets. Maybe that's not the norm, but you wouldn't catch me driving anything off the lot that I wasn't sure worked properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sx2 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Milaca was great when I put in the order for my house, then when it arrived things weren't as I had planned. They told me I could keep it or wait for 2 months for another one. I kept it and have problem after problem. Milaca nor Ice Castle have stood behind anything. The repairs they did agree to complete made my problems worse. I wouldn't walk across the street to redeem my free Ice Castle coupon.

BigDogRob Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 When I bought my RV edition it came with 2 full propane tanks they installed! Battery I put in and did pay extra for to get the larger gel pack deep cycle! Should've got 2! The only thing I noticed was my water pump wasn't hooked up when I got home.15 minute fix... I couldn't get my water heater to light, so I brought it to Montevideo, and then while there they upgraded to the self ignite model at no charge, but I did add 2 new cabinets, a light, and a silverware drawer while there. $$$ well spent!It has been good to me since! We have pulled many fish through the floor, and plan to pull many more! If they say they charge to check for propane leaks and to make sure everything works, I'd offer to let them take a pic of my rear bumper, cause I'd already be leaving!

Moe Szyslak Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Wow! To me that would be like buying a new car without a battery or full tank of gas. Pretty unfortunate if you purchase something that expensive without these basic items. They only do it because the customer allow it.
