True about the price, but bear in mind it will more then likely cost a fair bit less when Boom Arms and the other HK retailers start shipping them. Link to post Share on other sites
Magsz Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 If the japanese distributors are pricing it at that, why would the hong kong retailers price it any cheaper? Do you mean thats the japanese RETAIL price? Link to post Share on other sites
mrk Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Boom Arms now has them listed. $248USD Link to post Share on other sites
IronWolf Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 If the japanese distributors are pricing it at that, why would the hong kong retailers price it any cheaper? Do you mean thats the japanese RETAIL price? If you were to compare the prices of currently available Prime parts in Hong Kong with the prices of the same products in Japan, generally the HK prices are cheaper The price I quoted was from one of Primes Japanese distributors Edit: The proof is in the pudding, see above post Edit 2: To try and answer your first question, Prime are a Hong Kong based manufacturer so I'd imagine it would cost them more to have to ship their stock across to Japan, pay import taxes and customs, and then have to sell them on the Japanese market which is not as aggressively competitive is its Hong Kong neighbour.
