Hugh difference in price

Post by gothbin »

Today I ordered a treble pickup cover from Rosetti in England for my 4003, and I have to pay 22 pound wich equals more than 30 dollars. This is more than twice as much as in the USA.

It seems a bit unfair, but the only way to get hold of spare parts. Are there other resources to get hold of parts, or are we stuck in Europe with these doubled prices?

Any comments or suggestions wanted.....

Don't those things pop up on Ebay all the time? That would be my first look...
