    Maybe a little of topic but...

    ...a fender am dlx is more expensive than a mm sterling at music 123 but in sweden is the sterling much more expensive than a am dlx, and when i looket at the hartke kickback 15 that costs 450 compared to the ampeg ba115 that also cost 450... the hartke is way cheaper in sweden. why is it like this?

    Well, perhaps they have some clearance or sth........
    Usually prices don't change that much. Are you about to buy sth?

    Do they figure in the shipping costs to get them into the different countries? They may factor location into that cost?!?

    Some of them might be illegal and might came to Denmark together with cocaine and rifles LOL.

    No seriously, denmark has really heavy import taxes.

    well, a fender am dlx costs 1950$ here and a Carbon Pearl Blue sterling with Matched headstock costs 2950$, that's a huge price difference... first i was into buying a am dlx but whne i saw the prices in sweden i thought i could get a much higher resale value here.

    and what does sth stand for?

    wow...

    My feelings on guitars in other countries. They need a good contact like this here board. Im sure if you gave someone cash, they would buy a bass and ship it to you and end up cheaper.

    Of course i could be wrong.
