IMusician is selling K240S's for £67UKP / $130USD / $166AUD (conversions from Yahoo Finance) - although there's a 2-3 week wait. Link
I ended up buying a new pair from Ebay for £83UKP including delivery as I couldn't wait 2-3 weeks. |

That price is a fantastic ripoff. Normally $250? Maybe at that particular store... the list price is $150 and most stores are selling it for $100 or less because it's a discontinued model.
You're far better off with the K240S (the "industry standard"), it has better frequency response and will last longer, but is the same design in most other respects. What's more, it sells for about the same price - it's $100 at zzounds. |
Hey Digi!!! Is there no where locally to buy them. I phones this place for a dieferent iquiry and they said the do no ship up here? |

Hm, I always thought they shipped to Canada, but apparently not... I've always just had 'em shipped to a relative in the US to get around Customs.
Anyway, just hit up Long & McQuade, I got my K240DF from there for about $150 - that was almost a year ago, and I'm fairly certain they had the K240 Studio as well. |

we ship internationally via Parcelforce and the price would be an astonishing £55GBP. This service takes usually 7 days.
http://www.audioproducts.com.au/brands/akg.html are the Australian distributor for AKG, with our shipping costs in mind it may be cheaper buy there.

Nice to see an honest salesman. Too bad the shipping is so damn expensive. No wonder everything here costs so much.
I've sent about 20 emails to local distributors just now so let's see if anyone has a good deal. |

That's about $140 shipping. That's nuts!
Customs wouldn't matter as you can get upto $1000 without paying any fees. |
