Hey, wait a minute pilgrim. The last recorded Tremoverb combos sold on Ebay went for $900 and $1500. Usually the heads alone go for $1200. NOBODY selling a tremoverb on ebay offers to sell to NZ. Shipping on an Amp like that is going to be at least $800. It will have to be run through a power adapter (a big one as these draw serious power say $300)

So say $US2000 to get it here thats $nz3225 plus $400 gst plus $300 adapter, thats as near as dammit to $4000 and you havent got a $700 case. Thats not even factoring in the risk of being ripped off or damage in shipping. Take your chances with Ebay by all means but at $3800 or offer this guys amp is a good deal. The tremoverb is a modern classic.

One thing Yanks need to know about NZ prices is that for new music gear - basically triple your US$ and that's the NZ$ price.

We are constantly ripped off here, which is why so many people import their own gear these days.

I can generally land what I want from US for about 30% - 40% less than NZ price.

haha

cheers for stickin up for me boys... Phillipnz you are definately my kind of axeman!

remember, it IS negotiable, and it has an ALL NEW power section in it.

take you r chances on Ebay, by all means, but when i was going to buy mine off EBAY the shipping worked out to be almost as much as the amp.

luckily i found one domesticly.

New Zealand dollars are something that the rest of the world laughs at. Beacuse they know its not real money.

Yep totally agree Richy - it's just printed paper so put it all in an envelope and send it to me to look after it for you - that way you can concentrate on the US stuff- cheers!

NZ Dollars are what are used in NZ (I know that's confusing for some of you 'merkins). Note the name of the forum... NZGuitars! New Zealand is NOT a town in Texas, it is a smallish country (just over 4 million people) in the south-west Pacific - Just next to the US-wannabe... Australia. If you ain't here, you're square buddy.

Maybe you should just go to your nearest Guitar Centre, or Wal-Mart and get the spotty pimply sales dude to sell you one... he'll take your samicky, oil-stained, terrorist-baiting US dollars!

OK... its OK... I'm... OK. The urge to invade the continental US and teach them geography has passed.
