Regarding the Thomann competition, I am from Spain and constantly checking popular synthesizers and digital piano prices and the local shops advertise prices that are mostly on par with the german juggernaut. Thomann is great, but a decade ago they sent me a Korg synth with the printed manual in German, I guess this has changed.
On the other hand, I prefer getting the package myself in the car, so as to avoid surprises when the thing arrives --I didn't have any issues with Thomann's courier, though.
- S_A_P 6y agoThat is my preference as well, but in some cases Ive saved significant amounts by purchasing from Thomann or MusicStore.de. Im in the US, so the Minimum Advertised Price is the default unless you find a store that will work with you and offer a discount privately. Those exist, but not for every piece of gear(popular stuff usually wont get a discount, because why?) I feel like this is the kind of problem that is solve-able, but Im not quite sure how just yet. If I can figure it out, maybe there is a startup idea :)
