Huh? abede, where did you get the news? I think you got things mixed up.
The Serpent factory is generally closed in summer for their long holidays.
This is the same with all EU companies. I believe it is up to 1 month.
However, that is old news and I would think that they would have learned
their lesson and stocked up the parts pretty good as the whole world does
not stop when they take holidaysBig Smile

moat, did you happen to see if they were selling Serpent spares also?

Ummm, don't know what they are trying to do... They'll shoot themselves in
the foot when they do it. Who are they kidding? With the price like that
and one look at the 705 compared to the GS Vision PRO, people will
definitely choose the 705...

And here I thought that Ampang is controlling the prices of Serpent
stuff... Let the price war beginEvil
