Did you purchase them via e-bay from the US? How much did shipping cost?

None from eBay, but from GC, Basscentral and even from this very board.

I have a mailbox in Miami, so shipping to Chile was a cost I could handle. Aprox U$100-180 extra per guitar...

OK this is encouraging, I'll take it on-board. Cheers.

The MM rep in my country sells the guitarrista such a high price, that it's better to handle it myself, knowing the risks involved. Thats why I love MM. CONSISTENCY.

Yeah I know what you mean.. I've bought mine in Aus for what I now know to be quite expensive.. I paid $3800 AUD (rrp was around 5000 something..) for a standard Y2D with floyd. At the time I thought it was a good deal but seeing the prices in the US I would have been better off purchasing it from there and shipping it. People really do get ripped off in Aus I think..even if it's remote, I don't think it's justified. For example, every place in EU I've seen list the same axe for around 2 - 2400 Euro which is still under by about 1000 AUD..
