SouthWest Strings has very good prices.
However the shipping costs to EU could be astronomical!
(even for Canada they're ridiculous)

I've gotten some great prices from Quinn violins.

Chris Quinn always offers free shipping.... maybe you could put that policy to the "ultimate test". (sorry Chris )

It's clearly an "only in the U.S." policy. No legal loopholes and such.

I know, I was joking. He's kind enough to extend the policy to Hawaii. Germany.... that's probably pushin' it.

You should buy them from us, if only because I've actually been to Cologne...



Just kidding, of course. But a wonderful city!
