DuyKha Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Anyone purchased AV equipment from AV Science (from the US) before? I just got a message from Jason Turk saying he doesn't ship to Australia - bit wierd. I had asked him for a quote on a Lumagen HDP video processor. I couldn't tell from his reply whether this was a Lumagen distribution restriction thing or a no shipping to Oz policy!
CAVX Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Strange indeed, but I thought I had read a rew posts from people who had bought gear from the US... Even though we can aquire transformers for the 240 - 110V conversion, is it possible that this a reason? Mark
Durazing Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 I had the same reply from Jason at Av Science over 2 years ago. So its nothing new.
Guest eandoz Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Same thing here,I had asked for something just a couple of months ago and got the same response.
The_Preacher1973 Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Same thing here,I had asked for something just a couple of months ago and got the same response. I bought my Sim2 from AVS. When I emailed Jason he gave the same response. When I emailed Alan Gouger he said no problem. Go figure.
JoshH Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 I ordered my ISCO III from AV science - they didnt want to do it - but I kept hassling :-) Edit - it hasnt been sent yet though... so transaction not complete!
Gino Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Very odd, I do business with Alan all the time. Once you do a favour for him he never calls it even. When I asked for a price on that lumagen for you Duyk, neither of them gave me any indication that they wouldn't ship to me, and they both know I'm in Australia.

Cheers, Speaking of shipping.. and I know this is OT. but its ammusing none the less... I ordered some new big brake rotors for my car last week from Stoptech in California - they shipped Friday from California via UPS and arrived this morning at my doorstep! WOW! Now.. I shipped a 2.4 metre parcel that weighed 75kilo from Sydney more than a week ago via overnight express shipping and it only arrived yesterday. The freight company actually lost it for three days... how do you loose something that is 2.4m and weighs 75 kilo! And why can I get something from the US in half the time it takes to come from Sydney? *shakes head*
