17BII+ price cut in Germany - Thomas Radtke - 05-26-2014 08:02 AM

Sorry if this is old news: Several sources (found it on ebay and Amazon) in Germany now offer the 17BII+ at less than 35 EUR. Previous opportunities on the 10BII+ and the 30b have shown to be very temporary, so be quick if you find this interesting.

From Amazon.de:
Quote:Dieser Artikel kann leider nicht an den von Ihnen gewünschten Ort versandt werden.

Which roughly translates as: Amazon really likes the EU when it comes to locating our headquarters in Ireland and paying zero corporation tax; but we don't like the EU when people try to buy stuff from Germany for less than we sell it for in the UK.

This goes to anywhere in the EC for 37 EUR.

I was just acknowledging that the most known destinations within Western Europe are excluded, and not necessary members of EU.
And I know how big is this EU, believe me. I have been at most of those counties and around as well.

Sorry, just saw the EC was stated to be a possible destination and overlooked those ridiculous exclusions :-/.

That is ridiculous - They exclude all EU except Austria. I could buy it for you. The postage for a registered envelope would be 5,60€. Not registered=3,45€. There is no insurance however.

If you're interested drop me an email.

Edit: no insurance
