Re: Online retailer that sells Godin guitars?
I don't think anyone's allowed to sell or price online. Godin was a wierd pricing thing where they sell to everyone at the same figure. So, if factory pricing is 300, it costs a Canadian dealler $300CAD, it costs an American dealler $300USD, it costs a UK dealler 300£.....ect
They're not allowed to sell online because Canadian dealers would be able to undercut US dealers, so to make it fare they said no one could sell online.
Or so goes the story as it was told to me.

Go to the Godin website and you'll find the dealers. I've not seen any of htem advertise too often with pics and prices. Not sure why.
might also check gbase.com and search for godin.
I got mine from Cream City Music. They have an internet ebay operation called Warp Drive Music. They are on ebay all the time.

Just because the dealers don't advertise online doesn't mean that you couldn't call the dealers on the list and see which ones are willing to ship and for how much.

Up until very recently, Taylor Guitars had the same policy. No on line marketing, or even identification that they were a Taylor dealer. Godin has a similar policy. But once you identify a dealer, there's nothing stopping you from email or phone communications to work out a transaction. Actually, this can save you money in some cases since the dealers don't necessarily stick to the manufacturer enforced Minimum Advertised Prices that you see in advertising for other brands like Fender and Epiphone, etc.
