Buying a Concept2-E

Post by Sofus » April 7th, 2009, 6:41 pm

Hi!
I am living in Norway and want to buy a Consept2-E, but the price is quite high 3035$. :(

Concept will not ship to Norway, is it possible to buy from any store in USA or Canada?

Regards from Norway

Concept2 USA won't normally ship ergs to any countries where they have a local dealership. http://www.concept2.no

Why did you choose a model E and not the cheaper, more normal for home use model D?

Folks in the UK are always complaining that the ergs are cheaper in the US/Canada.

It might be cheaper from another European country with fewer customs and shipping issues. For example in Germany the Model E sells for approx. 1450 Euros. I don't know if can get a reduced price without the VAT if you are in Norway or what the shipping costs are - but they do have a statement saying to call to ask about shipping to other countries so it sounds like they ship internationally.

Sites for other countries are listed here:

Amazon sells concept2 rowers in the US but they only ship in the US.

I do agree with Citroen though - why the Model E instead of D?
