You saying they do free international shipping sometimes?Quote:

Thanks!
Yep, they have really good specials pretty frequently, sometimes even specifically for Australian customers. I normally stock up a cart and wait for one, it can be a very big saving. Even if it's not shipping sometimes there are big discounts on the strings so it works out pretty well.
If you do an order and get on their mailing list you get notifications, there will be a Christmas one before too long.
Apparently now is not one of those times for free international. :D. Their international shipping seems pretty reasonable (some places charge 3 times what shipping should be from the US). Even with shipping, their prices seem lower than anything I could find on e-bay. I saw a lot of bargains for the guitar princesses, but not much love for 4 string slingers :rolleyes:. Still cheaper than elsewhere. Would have been pretty sweet when the AU dollar had parity:pQuote:

EDIT: Just went and had a look and if you scroll down on the home page there is a place you can sign up for the newsletter. I normally hate that crap, but well worth it with these guys.
Good stuff. Thanks again!
"Black Friday" is just around the corner!

Nuh. Black Friday is the day after US Thanksgiving which always the 2nd to last Thursday in November. This year it's 26 November, so BF is 27th.Quote:

There ya go, I thought Christmas and Easter were the only days for rampant commercialisation.Quote:
