cr_XD Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 so, i live in spain, and as i was looking for the cheapest place to purchase a pair of humbuckers for my fake les pauls i run accross this page, i think it was in one of the forums and saw really nice prices. But this site is in the USA, it sure ships internationally, but doesn´t give any further information than the cost which seems to be standard, and i don´t know to which point i can rely on buying with a credit card and have a parcel sent by plain mail. If you are ever wondering why i should buy then from so far away, i´ll tell you that each of the pick ups here cost 120 €, which is more than 120 dollars, and sending here from there would cost 150 US dollars both. What do you suggest?? Did you ever bought anything from that page and know they are reliable?? and last ... is it everything bout guitars so f***ing cheap over there: i would consider moving there XD please help bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsl602000 Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 hey, I haven't done any business with guitarelectronics.com, but there's one thing you should be aware of: Spanish Customs will probably tax the **** outta ya. I'm in Holland and besides the shipping costs, I have to pay about 25% taxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlexVDL Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 There's one good thing though... One Euro is about 1,17 dollar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
