lamewing Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Just a quick thought. I was just running thru ebay to see where most of the HiMD and MD units are coming from these days. It seems that the largest percentage are coming from the UK and Canada, with a few from Australia. Very seldom do you see them from Japan - except for dedicated importers.Anyone have a clue as to why so many HiMD and MD are being sold in Canada and the UK? It is almost like an exodus!!!

Richard Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Very seldom do you see them from Japan - except for dedicated importers. It's just that most Japanese sellers do not ship internationally. If you have a look on the Yahoo Japan auctions, there are dozens of Hi-MD units for sale and lots more older units too, but hardly any of them are open to international buyers.

KJ_Palmer Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I'd be careful if you're thinking of buying MD or other Sony gear from the UK, as you'll be getting heavily Euro volume-crippled goods, which isn't always defeatable. Maybe this is partly why they're being sold off on ebay. Anything pre-2002 (MZ-N10 generation) should be fine though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky191 Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) Same with US sales. (US delivery only usually) Edited November 23, 2005 by Sparky191 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not looking to buy, was just curious as to why there was such a large number of UK sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
