Thinking about getting one and just wanted to know what you think is reasonable. If they have a swimming pool, offer multiple classes free of charge and have weight equipments and exercise machines what would you say was a reasonable price?
They already gave me a price, but I'd like to know from public opinion.
weights and exercise machines , bargain down to 700 rmb a year
add being clean with showers and new building 2000 a year
add swimming 4000 a year , this is annual payment in advance in jinan 2 tier city.
It's expensive in south Wuxi - about 2,600 RMB per year but that includes a pool I never use.
I paid 1300 a year, but they had only basic machines, chinese style showers, building was kinda new, but nothing special and in the suburbs of Shanghai.
I pay 2650 for one year at Total Fitness in Guangzhou. It's well worth the price, but I had to bargain hard, they wanted to give me the foreigner special, 3888!

The cheapest I have found is around 700 yuan per month in Beijing, and that is just the bare essentials.
JungleLife:
That is over-priced, but paying by the month always will be.
cooter:
Wow, more than double what a Gold's Gym or just about any other "nice" gym would cost back in the US. They'd better be providing...*ahem*....exemplary "services" for that kinda coin!
GuilinRaf:
Well, this is just the barest of essentials. No extra. Nautilus machines, and some free weights and a punching bag which they used more like a "tether ball" I did not join..
