Yeah, I think this is genuinely market value for Virgil Arlo pickups. I'm not gonna be paying it, that's for sure.

Have been tempted to get one of those, but no external switching has put me off.

I'm also keen for the Diezel VH4-2. That one has remote switching.

Anyone see the VH2 head on TM?
Pulled before auction expired.
Sold on the bookface perhaps :think:

I convinced my wife to buy me this for Christmas, she pressed go on Friday night, Monday morning it is in NZ clearing customs. So for those of you above wondering about Anderton's shipping... For me it has been consistently faster than buying local.

Did Antertons charge you gst? Looking at something on their site and it seems to add vat back on as their vat is the same as our vat atm..

No GST is charged. (Though I am surprised, I alone have put a wee dent in the $60k threshold). It is not until you get to checkout with an NZ address entered that it removes the GST.

(pretty sure their VAT is still 20%, it was only certain hospitality and food sectors that were reduced. I just checked something in their cart and it took a 20% VAT amount off)

I think it was either the website going nuts or something on my end causing issues as it changed when i looked at it again now at home. Wasnt pulling 20% for me though.

Does hitting refresh on my R9 tracking every thirty seconds constitute obsessional behaviour?
