Pars Posted April 5, 2010 Report Posted April 5, 2010 Anyone else get the following email this weekend/today? modu Case made in Italy by Hi-Fi 2000 We would like our kind customer to know that the Galaxy, Slim and Dissipante series are now available in full aluminium see here modushop.biz and it is already possible to customize them. Click here modushop.biz Modu Staff A bit expensive, more of a jump from the standard pricing than I would have thought. Oh yeah, I got this email 3 times yesterday, and once (so far) today Quote
cetoole Posted April 5, 2010 Report Posted April 5, 2010 They look good, but the price hike just doesnt seem worth it to me. Quote
nattonrice Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 I got that email twice... Prices went up a fair bit thou. Quote
spritzer Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 I feel so special since I got that email six times over the weekend. Quote
n_maher Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 I feel so special since I got that email six times over the weekend. Me too. I must be a really kind customer. Unfortunately every time I looked into these cases I could swallow the shipping BS or the idea that something relatively delicate was going to have to be shipped that far with no local resource to deal with if I had a problem. I wish the US importer would bring in some of the larger cases but I guess if they saw $$ in it they'd already be doing it. Quote
Dreadhead Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 Me too. I must be a really kind customer. Nate it's because you're Mr DIYer Quote

You guys get the cheapper components, we get the "cheaper" cases! Quote
spritzer Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 ...and I'm stuck right in the middle and get neither. Quote
Icarium Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 They wanted me to be their importer, but the discount they'd give me (25 percent) + the cost of storing stuff like that in Cali and my lack of Italian seemed to make the math just not make sense.. or I would have probably taken a stab. Wouldn't be a bad side job Jeff Rossel style Quote
MASantos Posted April 7, 2010 Report Posted April 7, 2010 ...and I'm stuck right in the middle and get neither. It's probably the same shipping cost for Iceland and Portugal, it's still not cheap, but certainly better than outside Europe Quote
