Why is it so hard to find Wavedrum in the stores?

Post by wanda »

Hi, I've been thinking of getting a Global Edition Wavedrum for myself recently and I started searching for one - and I quickly realized that it is a pain in the ass to find one anywhere at the moment.

I live in Czech Republic, so I checked all the local retailers, zero found - then I looked up Thomann, which is probably the biggest retailer in Europe and they don't have one in stock.
Then I started considering importing one from US, looked up Sweetwater and Kraft, surprise surprise - not a single Wavedrum in stock!

Can someone explain why is that the case and how can I put my hands on one?
I am now trying to get a second-hand one, but the closest one I found is on a Polish website and the guy is hesitant to send it abroad.
Why is it such a pain to find them?

They've been discontinued, I think. I did find one an Amazon (US). I hope you can find a new one or good used one, they're great.

Finding a wavedrum

Well, I don´t think this is really hard to find. WD Global is been sold on Ebay.de, reverb.com, ebay-kleinanzeigen.de.
Me I´m looking for the Original series launched in 1994. That´s hard to find.
