(Europe) Master Deals Thread on Audio Product Sales

Right, it's a standard text but limited edtions is wrongly translated. It's limited stock, no chance to order them seperately after they're sold. Almost all polk speakers are in the bargain basement (warehouse, there's no room in the shop) and to me it looks like a batch clearance of not sold R series. But without calling them you can't know.

These are often limited editions, open-box and/or demo models with a full warranty.

"Often" ?! How the heck they can't be more specific about the exact condition (refurbished, used, new, demo...) of some product they sale ?? o_O

This is often due to logistical reasons—especially when there is more than one unit in stock, with some being display models or items that have been opened or unpacked.
Warehouses and administrative offices are often far apart, and the effort involved in going to the warehouse to meticulously inspect and photograph each individual unit is simply too costly to be viable.
Furthermore, each unit would require a dedicated storage location; otherwise, a mix-up during shipping would inevitably lead to trouble with the customer.

This type of wording is also frequently used when goods are heavily discounted for a clearance sale and the seller wants to avoid conflict with other retailers or the distributor/manufacturer. I have often received brand-new, unopened items when placing such orders.

In such cases, a customer can expect units that are in like-new condition, come with a full warranty, and show only minimal signs of use (e.g., in the case of display models). In any event, you still have the right to return the item.
 
Perhaps it's a good idea to write in the post if it's only available in a few countries.

When you said it like that, I thought you could only buy a single unit. However, they have at least two in stock!

They usually retail at 2000€ / pair, though often enough the stands get offered as a package deal. It depends if you want the stands, if you already have stands, then it could be a decent deal.

The link above from @Doenerkunde was valid until yesterday evening, but now no longer for 295/pair, now 339€, still a good price, I guess:
Horch-und-guck.de DBR62 new

And a pair 'as new' for 285€/pair
Horch-und-guck.de Elac DBR62 as new

Does anyone have experience with Horch & Guck, anyone recently bought the DBR62 for 295€/pair? Are they a serious dealer?

While the output on https://www.verbraucherzentrale.de/fakeshopfinder-71560 seems okay, https://de.trustpilot.com/review/www.horch-und-guck.de would make me choose a different shop.

In the EU, you can quite often find the DBR62s on sale for €300–360 per pair, though sometimes you need a bit of patience.

@djigibao posted the wrong screenshot; those are today's prices for DBR62 pairs.
But keep in mind, not all special offers show up on these sites.

News for the Netherlands. Popular German hyper store Kaufland opened a Dutch market place today that is supposed to compete with online giants like Bol and Amazon. While in Germany you can find some good deals sometimes (but doesn't send abroad), the Dutch online store is not that fortunate. It's even worse, Kaufland .nl sells even above msrp and not by a little. For Instance:
Yamaha a s201 amp €372 ( instead of €195)
Denon pma 900hne amp €970 ( should be €560, that's a €410 difference.
Wiim amp Ultra €639 ( €550 on other online stores)

Maybe it's a start- up issue or the focus is on other products, I don't know. But remarkable it is.

Do other countries have good online Kaufland deals?
