Europe Deals Thread

  Well, on italian Amazon the new pair cost just 20 euro more so not sure what's up with that.

Always forget to check all the other EU amazons. Only checked amazon.fr (my reasoning being that they might be cheaper in France as a French company).
 
I cancelled my order with amazon anyway and bought the NAD Viso HP50 instead.

Never used Amazon's Warehouse for anything except books, do you have some positive experience with headphones from there?

Yes I used them a few times with positive experiences - only when the item is described as either 'very good' or 'like new'. From my experience 'very good' usually means the box has been opened/damaged but the headphones and everything else are as new. 'Like new' from my experience usually still has the cellophane wrapping.
 
The big negative is that you lose the warranty. I thought it was worth the risk when saving £100 off a pair of headphones that cost £250, but obviously each deal's risk varies depending on cost and how much you save. I wouldn't risk it for £100 off HD800s for example.

Hey fellas, I am looking for a nice Senn PX100 II deal.
 
What is the usual price for these portable cans? I saw around 30 euros. Does it go any lower than that?
 
It won't be my main can though, I just need something light, portable, open back to use when I am out with my dog, walking with him and all. PX100 II and PortaPro comes to my mind first and I honestly prefer PX100 II over PortaPro.

  They did go as low as 20 pounds on Amazon.co.uk the past year. 30 euros is a good price anyway, imho.


Yup, I checked on precenoia and apparently 30 euros is the lowest it goes (27 29 euros or around). So I ordered one from amazon.de. It should arrive on Friday or something. Let's hope it will make my walking with dog times more enjoyable. Not that my dog is not good enough, he is the best dog in the world(!) but music makes everything better

I can't use my ciems, I need to hear my environment and all. That's why I had to get something portable and open back and relatively cheap.

S**t.. Of course Porta Pro goes on discount just after I receive my PX100 II (30 euros). I don't regret my purchase because they sound amazing but I would buy Porta Pros for 14 euros honestly. Anyway I remember many folks were looking for Porta Pros discount, so here is your chance fellas!

at hisound.co.uk they have the ba100 in black going for 25GBP (60% off) but the white ones are still 60 pounds. doesn't seem like a mistake as it has a code in the basket. definitely worth jumping on to try out Balance Armature tech on the cheap. It says the price is 60 until you go to checkout where it goes down. you have to choose the black ones.
