Hi, I was wondering which sites u guys buy ur gear from. I want to buy some stuff but i don't where from. music123, musiciansfriend, zzounds and musiciansbuy all have shipping restrictions and don't ship to India. ebay is too risky. What say?
u need some1 coming from the us to order online - else ull ahve to take ebay - bwt - its not tat risky - especially if the person ur buyin from has quite a few dealings...
^Restrictions and enormous shipping charges though, and there's always the customs duty to worry about. My suggestion is for you to wait until someone comes from there, otherwise, Ebay is the best bet for you, make sure that he does something to avoid the customs duty else you're down and out.
If you want from eBay, get it from one of the eBay stores. You get good discounts and a lot of them do international shipping. I recently enquired about an Aria Les Paul which costed $350. The store agreed to ship it for $80 to India. So it looked reasonable to me.
@disturbed: my grandma walked straight through customs with my guitar - they dont give u probs when its just 1
