It seems that with the tanning industry growing like it is today it would be a lot easier for individuals to find tanning beds at better prices. But, the truth is that most companies offer tanning beds to individuals at pretty high prices. That is, unless you know where to look! So, if you are in the market for a new tanning bed for your home, here are some great tips and ideas on how to get a discount tanning bed!

1. When searching for a discount tanning bed, a great place to start is with local shops. Usually, these are wholesalers who deal in bulk, but will sell to individuals as well. During the slower times of the year, such as winter, these dealers might find themselves with extra inventory that they need to move. Use this to your advantage! With these older, but still new, units sitting on their floor, these wholesalers will be happy to deal on some of their tanning beds, ensuring that you can get in on some great prices on the bed you want.

2. If you can’t find a wholesaler in your area that has what you want, try looking online at wholesalers. Usually, you can find a great deal here as well, and if you don’t want to pay for the expensive shipping, you can always ask if you can tack your order onto a larger order headed your way to a salon. This can help you save money on the shipping costs of getting your new discount tanning bed.

3. After you’ve tried to find the best deal through a wholesaler or online store, you can go directly to the manufacturer to see what kind of deal you can get there. While some won’t deal directly with consumers, most will have no problem with offering you a great deal on their current tanning beds. Usually, you can find great prices on discounted tanning beds due to old stock, demos, and even newer models that need to be tried out. So, this is a great avenue to find the bed that you want at a great price.

4. If you still don’t want to spent that kind of money, you can always try to purchase a used bed. Purchasing a used bed isn’t always the best avenue to go, so you should always try to get a good deal on a new one before you search out a used tanning bed. When you are shopping for a used tanning bed, it is better to purchase one from an individual or that was owned by an individual rather than one that was used by a salon. Salons use their tanning beds hundreds of times a week, where as an individual will use it 10 times or less a week. Be sure to check the used tanning bed out completely before you agree to purchase it.

No matter what type of tanning bed you are after, if you do your research, you can always find one at a great price that won’t kill your budget. So, keep searching through your local and online wholesalers, as well as manufacturers and you are sure to find the perfect discounted tanning bed for you!
