Title: Any German friends near Stadtroda ?
Post by: level42 on April 28, 2014, 08:16:45 PM
Probably slim chance, but is anyone living "close" to Stadtroda in Germany ?

I have an EADS ™ request for a monitor :)

Yeah I noticed it was former Eastern Germany so already had not too much hope.

Maybe I can have it shipped to a German friend who I will see in the (near/distant) future ?  :D ;D

Checking out shipping costs. Seller first quoted 20 euro for shipping to Holland, now he sends an ebay invoice with 90 euro shipping costs !!! Maybe the 20 was for inside Germany.....I asked the seller again...

if it fits, i could bring it along - for the price of a mcdonald's meal ;D

don't know, most likely NOT in september, because eurocade is at the weekend before the new school year starts and we always have meetings at school then which i have to attend >:(

the monitor most likely fit along with the rest, so please send me the contact details of the seller!

Forgot to mention it here, the monitor was shipped to my home for a very fair price. Thanks to all who showed their good intentions, you guys rock !

It's a great monitor. I wanted it to see if I can use the tube for an Amplifone set-up. It doesn't look like it's possible since this tube requires double-focus...well, at least it's a great monitor for......well for what not ;)
