Creative Playthings- those that purchased...need advice about negotiating

So, we went today to look at their swingset and were impressed with the quality. We are leaning toward the Williamsburg 7 ft. They are having a sale where it's $500 off and then there is another $500 coupon. The guy said there was also a coupon for a free wood accessory...so we were thinking about adding the Rock Wall. There is also a coupon for free accessories (phone, periscope). So the total "cost" would be $3580....after all the discounts it would be $2,199. Delivery and installation included.

Anyway, I was reading some reviews on here and posters are saying the price is negotiable. For those that purchased, do you think I should still negotiate?

We were there today too and were told they are having a no tax special but it expires tomorrow. Not sure if you already knew about that. We're totally up in the air between them and Wood Kingdom.

We looked at the same set as you and were quoted the same price, we would add the rock wall too haha. We were not told about the play accessory (DH just saw the coupon online though and also noticed that the 'no tax' is until the 16th as per the website). We were told they'd throw in a toddler swing, so I'm not sure if that was in place of the free accessory. I think I would try to negotiate a bit more. The worst they can say is no!

We just ordered a set 2 weeks ago.
There are loads of coupons on their website. We got $500 off, all tax off (this ends tomorrow), free wood accessory, free play accessories (phone, etc), 15% off all additonal items. Items are currently on "sale" so not sure so much about negotiating. We didn't try after all that.
