Devialet upgrading (bad) policy

[mdconnelly]

Where I feel pressured is this upgrade window.   Having purchased my 200 in 2016, I understand that I will be eligible for a discounted upgrade (although I've yet to get an actual confirmed cost in US $$ from Devialet or my dealer) but have been told by Dev support that it must be done by December 2016 to get the discount.

Will I upgrade?  If the feedback by December is highly favorable (which I suspect it will be) and there are no glitches in the product or process, then I suspect I will.  But truth be known, I'm pretty damn happy with my 200 as is.

We have the prices confirmed in Sweden and if I look at the prices for a 400 and compare the prices between USA and Sweden the listprices in USA are about 10% higher in the USA and a 220 to 220PRO is 33500SEK (if it was bought in 2016) here and that gives 3900*1.1=4290$

So around 4300$ is my guess but that is perhaps totally wrong

I got an email awhile back from Devialet indicating the full upgrade cost for a 200 was $4590 (US).    Unfortunately, I've not been able to get a price on the 2016 purchase discounted upgrade price.   Dev support indicated I would get an email to this effect once they are ready to upgrade Experts in the US.   

Time will tell I suppose.
