:shock: keep in mind that Ricks are not allowed to get shipped outside US by authorized US RIC dealers, so and answer here might bring someone in trouble.... :wink:
A similar situation occured a few years ago involving Sam Ash. When JH found out, Sam Ash nearly lost their dealership status.

As a 2008 model, I doubt it came from any dealer as a new instrument. In fact I have checked out Wildwood's stock several times, and the last 08 Cii I saw there in stock was TransRed, and everything else was a very late 09 IIRC.

As long as it is a used instrument, an authorized North American RIC dealer can sell it outside of North America. Probably the case with this Cii.

Having dealt with Wildwood for years, I know for a fact they do not ship Rics out of country - I was assuming that if it had come from them, they sold it locally to a friend of the owner, who then in turn would have in essence "re-sold" it & shipped it to Turkey. When I purchased my 4001C64 from them a few weeks ago, they had a trans blue 4004Cii in stock, but it appears the Turkey bass did not come from Wildwood.
