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... :whip: |

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?

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? |
