BUY A NEW KEYBOARD FOR UNDER 1/4 OF THE NEW PRICE..?

BUY A NEW KEYBOARD FOR UNDER 1/4 OF THE NEW PRICE..?



In recent years I have made more and more purchases by self-importing from China.

I have bought many products that have been new to the market - at bargain prices.
The quality has generally been very good; in fact, often far above the quality of similar products bought from Norwegian retailers - which cost many times more.

For fun, I got the idea to check with AliExpress if it is possible to import keyboards from China, and the shock is still there:

It is possible to buy a new Korg Pa5X 88 for just over NOK 10,000 
Or a new Yamaha Genos for only NOK 6,400 

Of course, Norwegian VAT of 25% is added to this price, or in the worst case special import tax of around 30%.
But regardless, you save thousands.

And warranty?
Who needs a warranty for products that last more than 10 years anyway?
