Hi. My second hand virus ti cames without the side wood panels, and the plastic screen broken (a little...). Well, I contact access and they send me to a two authorized sellers here in Barcelona...The first say me that he can't contact access for that (? ?). I ask for the price to the second seller and they want 90 euros !!!!!!!! for 2 wooden pieces and a 1 plastic piece ???? OMG !!!! sorry, but I am a little anger , and I'm not crazy. I don't like giving away money, my money. I think that I will buy a wooden piece in order to do two DIY side panels (5 euros) . That's all, folks.
Side wood panels price

I have slightly different prices here but for the sake of comparison, let's pretend that those are the same. if you break the total of €80.- down you'll get the following:
€21,54 for a pair of side panels
€3 for the plastic screen
€43 for shipping from germany to spain using UPS
+ 19% VAT equals €80,37as you might see, we're not really making money on spare parts.
best, marc

Can you not send them by air mail, instead? €43 delivery is a bit steep...
-
this is what i was asking as well. it turns out that we didn't find a service so far which is cheaper _and_ allows for international tracking. we will not be able to ship goods internationally without receiving a delivery note. hope that clears things up a little.

I'm not sure about other origins, but from the UK I would just send it royal mail small packet and signed for (thus allowing me to track it online)

Hey Marc, it's not possible to obtain replacement parts directly from Access, is it? My indigo 2's display is very dim, and I would like it replaced.. I can do this myself. When I have inquired about this in the past, the nearest service center says they can't do anything until I send the whole unit in for a "diagnosis" first, which is unnecessary..
thanks in advance

€43 for shipping from germany to spain using UPSYou could probably get a return ticket to fly down & deliver it in person for cheaper than that

€43 for shipping from germany to spain using UPS???
I think it's too expensive, but this is what I think, of course. If this is the price, I can't do nothing...only complain
-
at that price i really reckon its just worth Access Music sending one or two things like that to authorised dealers in each country so users can access them at a reasonable cost... Tough as they are, if you use one frequently enough it will start to lose it's shine (some of the text has rubbed off mine, and the patch +/- buttons don't work so well any more, but it has been like that for ages).
