    I don't know, the shipping is $700, which is still high for Korea, and here is a quote:
    "The product prepared perfectly like this is called the first one in the audio articles history. A certain member client said and gave an advice. No matter what they say, since ordinary consumers are likely to rate the rank of the product efficiency based on the price, then look and listen and evaluate the product, the price would have to be fixed according to the sound quality. However, because of my stubbornness we lowered the product price doorsill to the maximum as part of the purpose to give an opportunity of a pleasant music life to as many people as possible."

    Maybe it's 98,000 won and he made a mistake on the currency. Let me see....
    1 South Korean won = 0.001055 U.S. dollars so 98,000 x .001055 = $103.39. Hmmm...I guess not :rolleyes:

    Even if it was $103.39, it would STILL cost you $803.39 total.
