Thank you in advance for your responses. In the UK June 1st 2015 as this was the date of transition from Absolute Sounds to Devialet direct distribution.

The original distributor unloaded his remaining inventory at a huge discount to dealers who then sold them at bargain prices. They were sold out pretty quick. You snooze, you lose.

If you look at the OP from Philip he kindly posted the following prices, and many like me thought great, a Companion 200 now looks more enticing:- 120 - £3,699 200 - £5,175, Companion - £4,375 250 - £9,550, Companion - £7,440 400 - £9,550 800 - £16,990 I verified those prices on my favourite Devialet dealers website then, and when I look at them today the prices are now:- 120 - £3,990 200 - £5,490, Companion - £4,490 250 - £9,990, Companion - £7,990 400 - £9,980 800 - £17,980 Quite substantial price increases. What's going on???

Very strange. Bizarrely the euro is now even weaker against the pound than it was last week so if anything the prices should have fallen even further EDIT: the lower prices were due to the previous distributor dumping their remaining stock.

Is this a price increase via the back door by Devialet to cover their increased direct distribution costs?? At least for the UK? It is pretty strange, give back with one hand and then take with the other.

Which equates to about GBP 6624 or 8710 Euros. We're getting kicked in the arse over here!

Come to POLAND... there is an interesting offer from Polish official distributor for buying a set (Devialet 120 or 200 + a pair of loudspeakers ELAC, B&W or ProAc). For example B&W 805D + Devialet 200 = 38000 PLN (Polish zloty) £ rate vs PLN = 1 £ is around 5,7 PLN so this set costs around 6666 £ http://www.tophifi.pl/aktualnosci/perfekcyjnie-zgrany-duet/?utm_source=tophifi-rotator&utm_medium=baner-sg&utm_campaign=devialet-804 RE: Uk price drop - hk6230 - 29-May-2015 Yeah, once you guys look at the prices sold in China, you will have smiles all over your face. |
