UK and German prices so different

[Geoff]

I tend to browse different prices in lots of online stores and what got to me was the Z21 controller in Germany is 150 Euros and in this country the same controller is £350, now I am not looking for a controller but if I did I would be fuming at the UK price.

Just buy it from Germany like I do

Could you recommend a particular establishment??

This is the site I spotted the Z21.

Just be careful as there is the cheaper z21 and more expensive Z21 IIRC.

Yep looks like the cheap one is the starter one missing a few bits, the black one is more expensive.

The white one is the lower cost z21, that's that one I have. They only came as part of packs as far as I know so any you see for sale have been split from their packs.

They are still worth the money though. I've not been disappointed in mine.

I call it skint, boracic, on my uppers, hard up, down and out.
Remember the old saying, I started off with nothing and I still have most of it left.

I found the same issue when looking for a Noch Grassmaster.
UK price £127. Price in Germany €109 (Approx £87)

Guess where I bought mine from !!!!!
