Helix stockists? (Now Helix-AS!! and cat pictures!!)

stickyfiddle

I've ordered one from Andertons as they have the cheapest international shipping but immediately after ordering they've bumped their likely stock date to Thursday which means I wouldn't get it till middle of next week, assuming the date doesn't slip further.

Does anyone else definitely have stock and international shipping that isn't way over 100 quid? I've checked guitarguitar, coda, and thomann, mansons, dolphin, PMT. Is there anywhere else I've missed?

Have you tried musik produktiv?

Never heard of them! They don't mention UAE in their shipping locations. I'll drop them an email.

HotRox have stock, don't know about international shipping though.

Gah! They can do it but still £100 more than Andertons

I suspect I'll just have to wait

Sucks having to wait for stuff doesn't it! :-(

DV247/musicstore.de do a standard 3 year guarantee too, ask them if they'll price match

All good things come to those who wait.

Not much help, I admit.

Unless you are waiting in a queue to be processed into Guantanamo Bay I guess.

Andertons STILL don't have stock and wouldn't honor the price drop they've had in the meantime. Meanwhile I've cancelled and ordered from Gear4music. A hundred quid saved and it's on a plane to me as we speak. Should be here in time for the long weekend we're getting

Fuck Andertons

I had an email from Andertons apologising for the delay, which states the Helix LT should be at their warehouse this Friday. I'm guessing that's when all the Line 6 orders might arrive.

Yeah, me too for the full fat. I was annoyed but ultimately fine with the delay as i'm busy at work and their international shipping was very reasonable, but the lack of price-matching their own price was seriously unimpressive under those circumstances, as was taking the funds on day 1 despite not having any clue when stock would arrive. I get that margins are thin and generally I'm a fan of Andertons based on past experience, but it's a bit meh in terms of customer service.

Think I asked this elsewhere but not sure of there was a reply, but do any suppliers other than Thomann give a 3 year guarantee?

Its especially ridiculous given you could just cancel your order and re-order at the new price anyway. Muppets.

I'm kinda done with Andertons. As well as anything their media output is poor and i constantly feel like they talk down to the experienced player.
