Hey guys, I was wondering if any of our Eurofriends could share some EU specific gear classified links? There's a weird fluke with the exchange rate right now and RME stuff is way cheaper on the EU used market, so I'm trying to find a UCX through that route.
Norwegian "ebay" site: http://www.finn.no/finn/torget/ Although they're on NOK, it pretty much follows the EUR
Audiofanzine (french site partially translated in English): http://en.audiofanzine.com/ Here is the classified ad link (only in french): http://fr.audiofanzine.com/rme-audio/petites-annonces/ One of the most popular french general classified site: http://www.leboncoin.fr/instruments_de_musique/offres/midi_pyrenees/occasions/?f=a&th=1
The Thomann classified ads http://www.thomann.de/de/classified.html?ref=hdr_tic_3754# Not sure if its available for all languages or just german
Thanks guys! Thomann actually gives prices in USD... not sure if they actually sell since this would technically be a grey market purchase, but I may go that route. New on Thomann.de = $1100, new on Sweetwater = $1600.
classified ads for austria http://www.willhaben.at/iad/kaufen-und-verkaufen/ won't you have to pay import taxes or something? I have no idea what is going on with the exchange rate or if it is related, but I saw the prs archon jump 300€ in a day (both 50w and 100w versions). Totally weird and fucked.
1€ = $1.06 right now. It's changed a ton compared to even 2-3 months ago. Not sure about import taxes to be honest; I've never experienced any when ordering stuff from abroad, maybe sales tax but I'm still coming out ahead.
yeah but it's been below $1.1 for quite a while now...maybe it took a while to adjust or something. Around last black friday it already wasn't really great compared to a year ago, but stuff like plugins really got expensive for us since the dive around march. Don't really think it's going to get better anytime soon, so I guess now the time is right for you guys to order kempers or so
Same here ! Especially seing how we are basically robbed whenever we have to deal with amps or guitars (it has always been 1$ = 1e for physical products, + taxes). Now not only amps are still twice as expensive, but plugins aren't worth buying in USD anymore I still pity the australians though.. !
in spain I don't know any specific thing but the generic http://milanuncios.com with some keywords or something could be of help, if you search all around spain maybe you can find what you want
Thanks for the resources dudes! I ended up grabbing it off Thomann; under $2k = no import tax, so I made out like a bandit.
