Looking for a Model C PM2/3 in good condition for 600euro ONO. I'm likley to be able to arrange the transport in Ireland. Please reply to my email.

Just FYI- 600 Euros is about $850USD- that's the cost of a brand new model 'D' (with a PM3 monitor) direct from Concept2 in the States- I ordered a model 'D' direct from them and had it shipped to me in Thailand- shipping was about $275USD or 190 Euros (+ import duty, which wasn't much)- you might be better off looking into ordering a new one for a few dollars more instead of a used older model.

You may do better on http://concept2.co.uk/forum there's a whole Irish team "Paddypower" who hang out on there.

Concept2 USA won't ship to Europe. There's a fully fledged European dealer network. The Irish stuff is sold from Concept2 UK in Nottingham http://www.concept2shop.co.uk/ with the pound being weak against the Euro it may be a good deal. But it will be a lot more than €600.

The only way I can get a machine at US prices is to buy one in Boston at the CRASH-B sprints (when C2 USA sell the race machines at a reduced price).

If Turlough can make it to the British IRC at the NIA, Birmingham in November he'll be able to buy a reduced price race machine at that event.

Else the marketplace on the UK forum or eBay (carefully because C2 rowers are a prime scammer offered machine) is the only way to get a second user machine.

I had no problems getting one shipped to Thailand, but there isn't much of a dealer network here (I think there is one company selling a couple of model 'C' machines, but they wanted at least $500 more than what I paid at C2 for a 'D'- there were no 'D' models available locally when I did my search- I'm one of maybe four rowers in Thailand out of the more than 13,000 on the C2 boards ).

It's too bad they won't ship to Europe- the international ordering process from their headquarters couldn't have been smoother- C2 did a great job- I couldn't have been happier.

Sorry, Turlough- I thought I had a winner for you.

Thanks for all your help. i'll have to try out the english site then. Didn't realise there was two sites... Wow i'm amazed they'r sellin brand new Model D's in America for $850 as they cost approx £1125 brand new in online shops in uk.

Here's a place in the States that says most of their items can be shipped internationally (and their 'D' model isn't much more than one direct from Concept2- click on their shipping link at the bottom of the page):

It wouldn't be a bad idea to shoot them an e-mail and see what they can do for you- £1125 is really expensive ($1830USD- more than double).
