What�s the best place to get a good deal on video equipent and editing programs? I prefer a mom and pop join (I love to negociate)...Looking to pick up a DVX-100a and some editing equipment. Also, where can I find (negociate) a deal on Computers, especially Macs... I can�t stress enough that I need a place where it is possible to talk to the owner.


Thanks!

Phil

hey Phil.

i'm pretty sure that the words "negociate" and "mac" are totally incompatible. you know, the price is the price.

not sure about editing stuff but i would scope out the technology section of segundamano paper for that stuff.

also go to calle barquillo (metro chueca or banco de espa�a), that is the meca of audio/video in madrid. start at the end that hits gran v�a and walk your way up, there are chain stores as well as a lot of mom&pop type stores.

saludos,

Hey SpainTutor,

Your best bet on Mac stuff is K-tuin (http://www.k-tuin.es/). Prices are non-negotiable unless it is a really big purchase, and it doesn't sound by what you need that this would be the case. depending on what you are buying margins are less than 5% so really don't expect a lot from Mac resellers nowadays.

If your talking to the owner is in order to get support, even K-tuin have downgraded that service a lot. You can buy a support service from deferent Mac shops for about 50 euros/hour.


I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.

where you living man? Confused

apple spain lists 489.00� ($646.780) Roll Eyes

not bad but then add a...

� keyboard (29.00� - basic)
� mouse (29.00 - basic)
� monitor (999.00 - cheapest mac monitor)
� speakers (�?)

gotta read the fine print on the apple website --> "El teclado, rat�n, altavoces y monitor se venden por separado."

you do the math!!! Eeker Mad Red Face

Hey $500 in US site. Who here can't get stuff sent from US? Unless you really need something in a hurry I would never buy h/w in Spain...

999 for a monitor? Dude next time you need one call me up, I'll sell you one. Which brings me to my next point, this is intended as a PC replacement so all those things you should have sitting on your desk, if not give me a call I am sure I can get it for you for under a grand Big Grin
