On take2.co.za there is an option to order directly from amazon and they handle the import for you. Prices seem really good - for example, a TC electronics polytune goes for R1166, the Korg pitchblack for R920, new crybabies for less than a grand and so on. Also, it doesn't seem like there's any extra courier cost except the normal R35 to get it delivered to your door. It seems to be cheaper than any other place I've seen online, with the only catch seeming to be a long delivery time (about 3 weeks or so).

Has anyone here ordered from them? Is there an extra charge somewhere that I'm not aware of?

Power might be a problem but seeing as pedals operate on 9v DC I don't think it would, as long as I don't order a power supply from them.



    I have. Its really that simple. I paid exactly what it said on the site. Only issue is the waiting times. if it says 17 days, thats 17 week days, so be prepared to wait a month for your stuff. Just check if the prices include VAT, I think they do.
      well... thats good enough for me ? putting in my order. will report back..
        Ja, no hassles and no hidden costs. Just pay heed to the warning that electrical goods need a converter. (They sell them as well btw) You also have to be patient - when it says ships in 21 days its 21 work days. So 4 weeks, not 3. Also when you order multiple items they will only ship once all the items have arrived at their offices. I currently have 3 items laying there for longer than a week waiting for the last item to arrive. It's killing me!
          Just to add that I agree with all the above. Very reliable, no hidden costs.
            I've bought cd's and dvd's and some small stuff and books. I've been eyeing some fender amps which seems like nearly half what they would be out here and just worried about power. But shurely there should be transformers available? Also the pedals and power supply units have worried me.
              Same here, I ordered some iPod headphones and DVD's, they're good and there were no hassles.
                Damn and buggerit ! >☹ You made me look, now I gone and ordered ! :-[

                PS. FWIW - All the items I looked at are less expensive on the US store vs the UK.
                  I've ordered an entire guitar HAHA. (And LOTS of CDs and DVDs.)
