Re: [slim] cost - slimdevices/logitech
Stu, The prices always seem to vary a little. The £219 from Logitech is a little steep though. You could also try Broadbandstuff or Multitask Computing - may get a deal for two - worth a try. All uk stock should now be Logitech branded as there's been a 6 week delay for the new stuff to arrive. A call to confirm branding would put your fears to rest.

Re: [slim] cost - slimdevices/logitech
£219 might be the list price? which is common for the manufacturer to list. Amazon etc. will be selling it at cost+markup. As far as the branding is concerned, you will probably get a Logitec unit as Amazon were OOS for a long time so i doubt they have any of the old runs left. They probably won't update the picture any time soon though. -- funkstar funkstar's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2335 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36220 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] cost - slimdevices/logitech
FYI I just received my two Squeezeboxes from Ebuyer. £190 each incl free postage. They had the new logitech branding, which didnt show up on their website. Would have preferred the old slim devices logo though... -- menno menno's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11751 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36220 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

VAT. We don't generally move prices with currency fluctuations, so the weak US dollar versus strong EU$ & British Pound has a major impact as well. Resellers set their own selling price, which is why you've seen it for less than our suggested retail price. -- JimC JimC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36220 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
