Why not buy them from somewhere in Aus?

Like VW, storedj, or any equipment shop in Melbourne?

Save yourself a crapload in shipping and taxes (large import taxes on anything valued over $1000)

they are pretty pricey down here..

1200s.com has 2 for 840 US which is about 1100 AU + shipping..

If a shop sells turntables, usually the first one they put in their inventory are 1200/1210's. And they have a perfect good reason for that.

Anyway, you are probly better off with a site wich has low shipping cost, a good rep, and cheap prices. OR mayb drive 3hours ( if that is what it takes ) to a store in Australia ( in this case, i hope you dont live in the middle part, happy driving ). Sydney probly has lots of stores wich sells dj stuff.

It's not worth the trouble, man. Just buy them from somewhere in Australia.

You can get them for AU$850 each from online sites such as:

www.dmcdj.com
www.vinylwarning.com.au

That's the cheapest you will find them.....


Or you could buy them second hand. Good places to look are:

3DWorld / other free street press
Trading Post
Buying & Selling Forum at www.inthemix.com.au/forum

I bought mine second hand off a guy on inthemix for $1150 total, and they were in perfect condition!

or you could just scan second hand stores until you get lucky.
I got two 1200mk2's + 1 flight case for Aus$550 from cash converters.
I have seen stores selling them new fopr $750, but that would be the best you could hope for, and you'll probably have to wait for those prices to come around again.
$1100 plus shipping, add some import duty, shipping won't be cheap cos these things aren't light, and no warranty if anything goes wrong.

werd!

i think they must have screwed up on the price, cos the same person also sold them a djm500 with two cdj500's, and they're selling that in a flight case for $2200. I wasn't even thinking about new turntables at the time, but figured I could just on-sell them in the worst case.

we have a cash converters here too, too bad i never see any 1200/1210's coming around but im still hoping that one day ill see it.
