Originally posted by skip i really don't see a point in ordering outside of EU for anyone in EU as you're going to end up having to pay VAT and customs and you have to get an adapter to convert the voltage and the plug because they're different in the USA. the adapters aren't really cheap either, at least i haven't found any reasonably priced ones. i dunno if you have the UK or the EU plug in ireland but i'm 100% sure it's different than the US plug is. also if you order from ebay you won't get a warranty. but if you order from the USA and get a warranty (for example from agiprodj) i'm pretty sure you'd have to send it back to USA for a warranty repair if it does break. but if you order it from somewhere in the EU you should be able to take it into any local Pioneer repairshop to get it fixed without any problems with the warranty. as tempting as it is, ordering dj gear from the USA just isn't worth it IMO.

i understand wot ur saying skip but wen u look at the price difference from the US to the UK its insane. lets say u wanted 2 denon dns3500 and a dnx1500 mixer in the US it wuld cost just over �1000 to buy the same thing in the UK it wuld cost �1800 thats a hell of a difference. ok you may get charged vat and import charges but it wuld still work out a damn lot cheaper. plug adaptors cost about �5 each so even if u take into account all the other charges ud still stand to save at least �500 and thast in a worst case sceanario.

ur are very correct with the warrenty stuff and is the only reason that makes me think twice about ordering stuff from overseas. really gets to me that huge price differences that there are.

i quite interested to know of anyone who has order from overseas with success or failure, what charges you encoured and do u think it was worth it etc..

Hm, no offence, but you guys are really whiners, for exampe there is a big monopol in Serbia that hold "skymusic" they are the only "legaly" sealers were i`ll get waranty, but prices are insane, for example they still have cdj 800 (not mkii) and guess whats the price... its 700euros...
Take a look at these http://www.skymusic.co.yu/prodaja/dj/index.php
I mean ffs, they present cdj200 as a new product and the price is 500euros, just take a look at the mixer prices, I also have to say that paypal and other money accouts(as much as i know) does not support Serbia, so i dont have anywhere else to buy my gear... I know im big in offtopic but i just have to say these things, average monthly payment over here is betwen 250 and 350 euros, so how should i exacly buy my gear, and then still to buy music? No, thx... Thats why here if you have money you can buy gear and spin anywhere, no matter how bad you are, pathetic...

those prices are cheaper than the prices in the UK so dont give me that. ur complaining of higher prices too and having a go at me for it. u do a currency convert and ul find that ur paying less than sum. we all have to save to buy stuff, just annoyin people dont have to save as much in other places to get exactly the same thing. just doesnt seem fair to me?

yea its a fucking bollocks because im afraid to buy from america due to problems with warranty and cant buy from this place because they rip us off. looks like ill have to go without cdjs

In Australia a CDJ800 MK2 is about 1400 AUD (800 EUR, 1000 USD)

also rediculous prices. americans get everything cheap, petrol, clothes, cars and dj equipment.

Originally posted by dj_kane idiot took it off ebay. is it worth holding on for the 800 or would you just buy the 200?

yes

the 200 is a marvel and is a joy to mix on. but you cant scratch on it... oh well, trance shouldnt be scratched anyways!

anyone know any uk sites you can pay in monthly installments?

http://www.djfinancedirect.co.uk/

thats the only place i know of mate. its 0% interest but they over price the equipment to compensate which is fair play as they are doin u a favour! i was thinkin of doing this but if got other monthly things i gotta pay. there are a few other companies that do their own finace but then u have to pay interest. wuld be easier buyin stuff on a 0% interst credit card and throwing it about from account to account until u can pay it off. just a thought?

interesting site. �600 for a cdj800 ats including delivery. only about 50 quid more and you can get an option of no payment for a year.

yeah im quite interested just worried about keepin up payments. dont forget u do have to pay a 10% deposit. does make me think of gettin sumthin expensive and paying it off monthly then my wallet disagrees may get sum cdj200 or 800 from them. more and likely will be the 200 tho.

i want the 800s though so i can play mp3s. and ill end up upgrading to the 800s eventually so might as well get them first time.

u can play mp3s with the cdj-200. i prefer the looks and precision of them, but i like the substantialness of the 800s and the whole gettin used to the jog wheel and being able to cater or DJs that like cdj and vinyl mode etc...

still 800s are really essential for playing in nightclubs them or 1000s. ive had my eye on the 800s for ages now.

i dont think so. i currently use numarks and goin from them to cdj-800 at a gig the other week was no trouble. the only thing thats different on the pioneers is the cue. but all the cues on pioneers are the same so i dont c ud need 800s unless u wanted to scratch?

i used to scratch. dont do as much as more. but if i was using cd decks then i might scratch on an old skool set i was doing. dont no what it is, somethings just dragging me towards the 800s.

fair dos i was just sayin that all. want the accuracy of the 200s and the functionallity of the 800s and u come up with the 1000s its sods law. lookin at that site makes me think can i afford �100 a month for 2 year for 2 cdj1000 and a xone92 or djm800!

hmmmmmmmmm?

In all honesty, after finally owning the 800s, the difference in pitch accuracy means almost nothing. In other words, don't let it sway you. My 0.05 (pun intended )

u say that but its not im payin more for a more accurate pitch, im payin less. my arguement that im havin with myself is is it reli worth spendin the extra cash on sum 800s where the only feature i gain is vinyl mode that i dont even use and i lose effects and the mre accurate pitch. like i said before the fact 800s are nice and substantial makes me want them but i think thats all it is, other than that i think im just being greedy.

Well listen, you can't go wrong with either...I went for the 800s because they ARE more substantial and closer to the full out top of the line 1000s. Plus, I don't look at the vinyl mode and scratching as something I'm not interested in, but rather, something I COULD be interested in later. For me, I know I'm not gonna upgrade in the next 5 years at least, so I wanted something that has a degree of "expandability" and "experimentation" to it. And again, the 0.05 vs. 0.02 should really not be much of a factor at all. On principle, yea it sucks and shouldnt be that way, but overall the 800s are a better buy if you're looking for something a little more advanced.

I had this debate myself, so in order for me not to want to upgrade (or downgrade) in the future just for the 0.02 pitch, which is stupid but it's my money. So I decided last summer to just get the CDJ 1000 MK2s, that way I would never have to worry about upgrading in the future, even to an MK3 (which besides a few features isn't all that different).

The CDJ 800 seems to work out fine and after browsing the Bedroom Pics thread, I've noticed more people own the CDJ 800 MK1 or MK2s than the CDJ 1000s. The close second is appearing to be the CDJ 200, so overall it seems like people just like to save money and in actuality don't need something so top of the line as the CDJ 1000 in their bedrooms. But someone like me, who had the money (from saving it up over time) and wasn't planning to buy anything else like TTs (got rid of them) the CDJ 1000 is great! Haha though there is the "I could have saved $1,000 if I got the CDJ 800s...or more for the 200s" but I said..why settle for less?? But Miami and the other guys are right, all you need really is an 800 for a bedroom....the 1000 is a bit overkill (though again i'm a hypacrite, I have the 1000....)

you can't have looked too hard for that price. Wholesale is only $10 or so more than the mk1's, and those could be bought from JB hifi for $900 or so. Sure the mk2's might be a bit more expensive, but 1400 was what the 1000mk2's were selling for.

I just went to dmcrecords and looked at the price.

there is no reason for me toget the 800s. i definately was being greedy. cdj200 here i come. just have to get a good deal on them.
