Archived Whats a new wave cost?

[Logistics Monkey]

our wave is pretty much unsuable right now, and instead of fixing it they said they will buy us a brand new one :\ just curious what one of these buggers costs on average

 

[Mr Quickart]

I have no idea about the waves but I assume they should be a little more than a cart pusher which run around $5,000. When I first heard how much those cost I was blown away!

 

[SomeBodysSlave]

The average new cost is about $14,500

But when Spot buys them --- it's usually by the truck load - then distributes them to the regions - then district's

So the unit cost is closer to $12,500-ish

I got one last year. It goes higher than the old one.

that would be awesome, old one is just a little short of reaching the lights in the backroom/recv. 12k on a wave and we cant even get new line for truck unload :/

We used to have the old yellow one, but we got the orange one that goes higher. Now we have two of them.

Do PFresh stores get new equipment? We're due for our update after Christmas. Both our Wave and Crown are horrible. Horrible as in service calls every month it seems, Plus the Wave stays on 2 bars at all times, no matter how long it's charged.

I wish I had 2!

I feel the same way.

On the charger control board there's a dip-switch for wet or dry cell. If the batteries were replaced with wet-cells ( much cheaper ) and if the monkey didn't flip the switch ----- it wont charge properly.

Or the charging pack needs replacement

Or the batteries are shot and wont take / hold a charge

We got two of the new ones at the beginning of the year, couldn't be happier.

You should be getting 2 new crowns. On wave, your batteries need to be replaced like slave says.

We got 2 new crowns at my store after remodel...

2 crown brand pallet jacks...

the new ones are awesome. I have used them at the planoramas. would have liked to driven it home. do ya think they would have noticed? i am short in the first place, the old ones i think go 8 feet up, the new ones go 10 feet.

 

[Joejoe12]

New one costs 8k

 

[signingminion]

We got a "new" one fourth quarter. It was actually refurbished as is completely hinky already. Took three years and a quarter mil estimated in vendor calls/ parts/ labor before we got a new one.

 

[Joejoe12]

We had two the other one was only two years ago this replaced one from 06.

Could be completely off But That is considered blocking a fire exit. Hope it doesn't stay near there.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

New ones at roughly 9k.

My store has 3 waves now. Always had 2, and took another from a nearby store that closed. Wish we could have gotten their PDAs too.

I have pinched my whole hand in the black grate thing.... Never felt so stupid and in so much pain. Felt like I broke every finger
