No more posts about Chinese products.

After looking and reading for about a week, I have decided to purchase the Eastsound CD-E5 from Cattylink in Hong Kong.

I am not posting any flamable reviews or links, however if you are in the market it would pay to put this one on the list to evaluate.

    If you got a good deal then I think it would be nice if you let others in on it. Congrats on your new purchase BTW.

    I've asked cattylink for a quote and it will be $779 US shipped for the CD player by itself and $937 US shipped for the CD player and the 3 level aluminum/wood spider rack.

    $779? I think BlueMDPicker has one. Don't know where he got it or what he paid though. :confused:

    So if that thing breaks, who are you going to take it to for parts or service? I'm assuming no warranty?
