Local shop has one of these for €1199 (US$1884 approx!). Ovation Price History says US$789.5 (in 2005)

It's the only O in the shop, has been there for a year and the sales guys basically say the're rubbish.

Surely this is way overpriced?

I could probably fly to the US, buy it there, and still save money!

Ovations are not at all common here -it's the only one I've seen in Ireland in 20 years.

For that price - including import duties & shipping - you could buy a top-of-the-line used O in great to near-mint condition from the US, especially with the value of the dollar vs. the euro now. Contact Al, you might be surprised.

Might do that - also watching eBay for ones in the UK - I get over there occasionally anyway.
