Denafrips Pontus 2 Price increases


Has anyone else noticed the the price of Denafrips Dac's have had two significant price increase in the last 12 month

Yes they did make "upgrade changes" but a 30% increases seems to be excessive

The Pontus 2 went from $1750 to $2,449

I am now having to consider an alternative   your thoughts

Better buy it now because tomorrow it may be $2400.  The stuff I bought was from the UK, not China, BTW. 

Many people have not realized that the default price listed on the Vinshine website is Singapore dollars unless you hit the drop down for USD.

Honest mistake unless you read everything. They even tell you your receipt will show Singapore dollars. This is mine from last month.

You are 100% correct as I just checked the web site again  the US Dollar price is shown as $1,792.97

 

This was my mistake and I have to own up to it
