Just wanted to make sure you are aware of ALL the dealers in India. there is about a dozen in your country and you may have better luck with one than another. you may have some difficiulty in some countries if you ever have to service the earphones for some reason. We stand behind our product and of course will service it if it fails within the warranty period. Getting it serviced in your country is obviously easier, quicker, and cheaper than sending it to the states. A dealer is more abt to service it if it was bought from them. Just would like you to be aware of ALL the dealers in your area, shop and make an educated decision, and make sure you get the best product, in a timely manner, for a reasonable price.

Actually turkish delight I want the black e4c. That is why I am so particular about the e4c. The e4 is grey in color which I don't want.

Also do you know what is the cheapest that I can get the shure e4c in India?

But I do have some questions regarding the response I have received. 1) Around how much will the shipping cost to India, Bangalore be? 2) If a head-fier sends me the earphone won't I have to pay the tax as applicable in India. 3) Also I don't mean to be rude but what if a head-fier receives it and justs keeps it and doesn't send it to me? 4) If I know someone in US is there a safe way of sending it here to India such that I can receive it without damage and also the cheapest way.. Sorry about the 3rd question if its rude. It's just that i don't have much experience regarding this. he he.... P.S : Slinger I don't mind giving you the um1 when you are in Bangalore i.e if I still have it by then.

If you can wait until December I can bring you over a pair. You can even pay me in rupees as it often turns out that I need rupees for spending whenever I go there. I will be spending a good 2 weeks in Bangalore.

It's nice to see a Bangalorean on Head-Fi.

Hi sxr71,

Hey thats really cool!! If I don't get it by december then i will surely love it if you could bring it for me. Also even I would like to pay in rupees. That would be actually really great.

It's nice to see a bangalorean too. That too an audiophile.

Is there someway I can contact you, either through yahoo or msn?

I'm sorry I don't use IM, for personal reasons (I've seen too many of my friends get sucked in by it). You can contact me using the Private Message feature here and we can communicate how we would do this deal. I should be there around the 17th of December barring any serious unforeseen circumstances. I am from Jayanagar myself, but I spend time in all the major areas of Bangalore during my vacation.

I have got great response and feedback from this forum.

It actually does not stop to amaze me. Also it's nice to see people on the forum being so informative and so helpful.

Great forum!!

Anyway I was interested as to know whether there were any members from Bangalore. I already found two of them on the forum.
