[QUOTE="Hennie, post: 30953, member: 20"] Yes, exchange rate fluctuation and inflation can easily consume all the profit on a slow moving item. You can quite easily find yourself in the position of just working your ass off just to be able to pay your next shipment. I'm pretty sure the distributors and retailers in bigger markets get their stock at prices the locals can only dream about. But in rare instances the reverse situation applied. For example, for a long time you could buy Sonus Faber locally at much better prices than in the USA. US tourists and visitors sometimes bought Sonus Faber locally and shipped the stuff home. I am not 100% sure but I think Audiotronic was the local distributor for Sonus Faber at the time (maybe still is). [/QUOTE]
