Your are correct, Sir. And by doing so, the person shipping is commiting Postal Fraud, which is a federal offense :)

Re: Where to buy pickups?

Import costs are really high here! When you exceed 60$ the additional cost can be another 100$, because state wants money! Bada Bing i think i would order from you in a risky way. I saw that you have a lot of things.Do you have any dimarzio pickups? I want to find two of them soon, because even if i like duncans, my axe has got a different opinion.The prices suck in Europe, especially in Greece.

MetalBlaze, tha ton dokimasw suntoma ton 8wma.. perimenw na ksanavalei sto stock tin v amp 2 giati 8elw na tin paraggeilw kai tou tin exoune eksantlisei.Den exw paiksei me rg 570 alla me tin 550 paizw polu suxna ;p Ti magnites pires? Akousa kati clip sou wraia paizeis.Keep it true!

Sorry bro, I don't carry the DiMarzio line, but if you decide on Duncans at some point, hit me up.

Just for the record: NO ONE can sell Duncan Pickups for less than the MAP price provided for us by Seymour Duncan Pickups...if they do, it's in violation of our dealer agreement. We can sell used pickups for less than MAP but we all have to follow the same guidelines for pickups that are sold with the 21 day exchange and Duncan warranty included. We can sometimes do FREE SHIPPING on some orders to sweeten the pie, but that's about it. Lew

Re: Where to buy pickups?

I think US dealers are not allowed to sell SD pickups to Europe.
Well that's the case for dimarzio. I was lucky one day i bought a custom pickup (color etc) but the following week my friend tried to buy a set of breeds and the online shop stated "no shipping to Canada or Europe".....

Does it apply do Duncan's too ? That would be really suck because the prices in europe are 40% higher and you can't chosse custom colors (or it takes forever)

For europeean user, keep in mind that the germans superstores (stated above, musik produktiv and thomann) are usualy very cheap and very fast, and have a hotline in every européean language. I mean you can even order a guitar and ask for a pickup swap or low action and they'll do it. Germans have really highs standards of quality and cusomer service (unlike spanish, french and italians - i know what i'm saying i'm french and lived in spain for 2 over years...)

Question: is the 21 day return polocy still in effect? If so who honors it?

I'm ready to purchase a zebra Screamin Demon but only if I can exchange it if it doesn't work out.

Thanks,

Mark

No. If you purchase from a US dealer at USA prices and the item is shipped to you outside of the USA, then the Duncan Warranty and 21 Day Exchange policy is null and void. At least as I understand it. This is to protect the dealers in your own country who have to sell the Duncan products at higher prices than we do in the USA in order to make a profit because they are importing them and those dealers outside of the USA pay a higher cost after tariffs and taxes than we do here in the USA where the Duncan items are manufactured. Again, as I understand it.

I'm in the US, so I assume the polocy applies to me. That said I also assume that not all dealers honor it... do you? Do you carry zebra SH-12?
