MK5 Speakers

[Mobile Fidelity]

what did the shipping cost you to Aus in Euro?

Just curios, think i might go this way with my new car.

Are you aware that there is a Rainbow distributor in New Zealand, if not, there is... You can Jump into a Paul's Audio (not sure of the store name) and make the enquiry...

35 Euro's which works out to be around $70 AUD.

May I ask what you paid for in AUD for the speakers including delivery? Bet it was more than we offer them for here...

Hey Mobile Fidelity,

yeah i do know there is paul's Audio, and indeed i know the Rainbow importer too.

But they do not stock the IQ Series, it's a order in item only, therefore i might as well import it myself.

Thanks for letting me know.

Roughly $420..give or take a few. That was for both front and rears.
You should start adverting on the internet if you can stock or get rainbow speakers. Google rainbow speakers and see how many Australian sites come up.

How does that price compare to what you could do them for?

I know you know how to use Google, but did you click on Australian results or left it on worldwide? We're in the first page for Rainbow German Car Audio.

We can organise group buys for members who are interested...

I wasn't asking about a group buy ..just how's the price i got compare to what you can do?

$420 delivered to my door for a set of front and rear rainbow IQ series speakers to suit 1993 W124 mercedes.

What's your site by the way? Save us all having to google for it

Ok you paid $420 right? That's 99 Euro and 109 Euro which is 208 Euro, converted to AUD is about $420 (yes we checked the price from the online store you purchased them from, we also informed Rainbow of the transhipper from Germany who hasn't read his/her commercial agreements properly)...


Then when you add the freight which cost you $70 AUD as you've mentioned, this then brings the total to just under $500. We retail the 2 sets for $520 which include, for obvious reasons Australian warranty...


As for website, our details are in our profile...

No we don't sell online as it is against the commercial agreements we have with the manufacturer's. The new website which isn't to far away will be more informative than the current "basic" site...

Am I sensing a case of sour apples if you bothered "dobbing in" another retailer, albeit an international one? I mean...really???

It's a shame you can't do online shopping as those that aren't in close proximity will do exactly as I did. The internet is a wonderful marketing tool!!
