|
|
Hi everyone,
I've just placed an order for a new PA700 and, much to my disappointment, I was told that delivery is expected not before mid-January.
Furthermore, I was told that I could face price increases, and all this because of the crisis on raw materials. Indeed, in other forums I have read about increases in Yamaha price lists in the order of 8-10%!
I searched for this PA700 in all major Italian retailers accredited by Eko Group (the Italian Korg importer), and none have availability, including Thomann.
Is the situation so dire in the rest of Europe?
Anyone has news of actual increases in the Korg price lists?
Thank you
Piercarlo |

Pa700 in Canada is $2400 which is currently £1425. The only Pa4x listed is an OR-76 at $5000 (£2970) reduced from $6000 (£3563). Looks like your Pa700 is a decent deal, Biggles. _________________ When I nod my head . . . Hit it!

It is not just Korg keyboards that are in short supply.
I have looked at others and very many are not in stock or listed as new stock arriving end April/May etc
Nearby store is showing limited availability on a Pa 4X 61 @ £2600 which was available pre Covid for £2300. _________________ Biggles
