Title: Where to buy D9200 in Canada
Post by: hedge on March 09, 2003, 11:09:23 am

Is there anywhere in Canada that I can buy this monitor?  It's one thing to spend big bucks on a monitor, but the cost of shipping across the border makes it somewhat prohibitive.

I haven't asked them yet but I wonder if Starburst Coin in Toronto is a WG distributor? They're a Happs distributor...... maybe if we're lucky....
They might know a Canadian distributor as well. It's worth asking.

Hi,
I have an inquiry out to the sales guy at WG regarding this.  I'll let you know what I find out. ($480+$120 shipping, ouch!)
WG does list 2 canadian distributors near montreal but I'm not sure what exactly they distribute.. you can find the list in the service section of the WG site.  I may phone them tomorrow.
Let me know if you have any breakthroughs =)

Ow is right! Thats like 900 Canadian! I'm just about giving up on the WG monitor. Maybe I'll go the tv conversion route.

FYI guys, contact Fran Rossini at Wells gardner (web sales link on the w-g site) and ask about refurbished D9200.
I got a quote of $325 + $60 freight to canada, and just put in my order. ($USD)
Much more reasonable than the previous $495+$120 the web-order form produced.
She mentioned she had a couple in stock.
