Massive SM7b heads-up!

[sawtooth]

If anyone in the UK needs an SM7b and doesn't want to pay over £300 go to
www.markertek.co.uk

£200 brand new, next day delivery.

Couldn't believe my eyes after seeing it for over £300 everywhere in the UK and Thomann.

actually, it dropped to £162.00 hahaha.... I dont need a mic but I'll buy this and sell it for a profit http://www.markertek.co.uk/Catalog/Dynamic-Microphones/SM-7

 

[sawtooth]

It's £162 minus VAT still cheap.

 

[R-Stuur]

Apparently I can't order this from NL unless I contact the consumer service or something

 

[Trevoire520]

What the fuck? Thats so cheap it's stupid! Makes me a bit suspicious to be honest. Normally a SM7 is more than double that price.

 

[Williamn]

Uh kinda thinking of picking it up.
But still, seems to good to be true ?

 

[Trevoire520]

I've already got a SM7 and I'm thinking about grabbing this, but it just seems too good to be true like you said. It could be a typo or it could be a scam. Anyone had experience with this company before?

 

[sawtooth]

I got one through the post just now! Legit it is They are an American company and have a base here. I actually asked the price and they retail at about £180-200 over in America.

Doesn't seem to be a UK-only site too, nice! Anyone know if this is a trustworthy site?

 

[Trevoire520]

Holy crap. Must, not, buy...

 

[Trevoire520]

More American companies should do this. They would make a killing if everyone could get stuff over here for realistic prices all of a sudden.

 

[Plankis]

Ok this is crazy.
Thomann price: 398 euro + shipping
markertek.co.uk: 190 euro + VAT + shipping

Registering now!

 

[FIXXXER]

compared to the regular price it's almost 50% off,
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU, WTF!? sure it's not a china copy?

 

[sawtooth]

I hope not! lol don't know how to tell as they haven't been reported. Like I said they are about that price new in America. Just shipped over here I guess.

Edit: Paper printed in the USA, and mic made in Mexico. Guess like a lot of the shure mics now. And the pins are labelled 1,2,3 and there's warranty papers in the box.

 

[Plankis]

Ok I just ordered. Impulse buys for the win!

It ended on 221 pounds, =(162 + VAT=36.8 + shipping=22), which seem to equal 260 euros. In sweden the price of this mic is 429 euros!! Maybe I should've bought a few, I'd earn it back instantly haha.

 

[sawtooth]

Glad I could add something to help people This forum has been great for me.

 

[sawtooth]

Ah Balls! The guy has just phoned me up to say that the price was a misprint! sorry guys! He was going to recall my order but it was too late as I got it! So it looks as though Thomann is the best price

 

[Ermz]

Damn!

 

[burst]

FFFFUUUU
