Wanted a les Paul classic that they had in the used section at £1199 and they wouldn't knock fuck all off it.
Fuck em' greedy bastards. And they wonder why we go to Thomann
When I contacted them they asked me to take pictures- not a massive problem but I had to charge my camera battery (i.e. find the charger) which held me back a couple of days- with the amount I've bought from them and with how little I've returned/complained about I thought they should've taken my word for it. It's not like I was asking them to send me new ones without returning the old ones, they could of course have inspected the stands when they received them back from me.
When they got them back they then sent me back one stand, not two. I noticed when I received the email dispatch notification, so contacted them almost immediately, but it still meant the second stand was sent out the next day- which ordinarily would have meant having to stay in an extra day to take delivery, except in this case for some reason the second stand only deigned to turn up about a week after the first.
Hmmm.
in dem
sorry >:D< I don't think that's true. If anything, I've seen the prices on Thomann (in Euros, I mean) go up to compensate for the weakening Euro, at least on some products.
The absolute sweetspot to buy is just as the Euro starts to weaken, but before they get round to adjusting the prices to compensate.
My local hi-fi shop wants £12,000 for a power cable!
They do have a speaker cable at £11,500, though. )
EDIT: holy shit they have 20% off when you trade in your old cable.
Will they take a stagg speaker cable, I wonder? It nearly seems good value with that special offer.
EDIT #2: what the absolute fuck?
That was only the price for a 1m pair.
You can buy a 14m pair.
Almost £140,000.
I am not making this up. Here's the name of the cable, if you want to look it up: Audioquest WEL Signature Tree Series Speaker Cable.
My house cost less than that (admittedly before the boom, but still).
The UK distributors will NOT say "Oh yes we will maintain our high prices to the retail guitar shops until Thomann gets all the UK business! Then when all the UK guitar shops are closed down, we ourselves will be out of business! Aren't we clever!"
The UK distributors will have to do like every other business in a falling market - drop their prices and improve their services to win more sales.

£400 is a hell of a lot of cash.
Don't get me wrong- I'm always worried with online sales you might get palmed off with a dodgy one. As UnclePsychosis said, if you get a lemon, you return it, but it's still a pain. On the other hand, I've also seen lemons hanging up on guitar shop walls for years, so
:-S
