OK, so I ordered the NX73V from www.expansys.com UK web site. Their description clearly stated that it had bluetooth ( they removed that part yesterday, had been saying bluetooth for several weeks now).

It had arrived now and it is the US version! Grrrrr!!!
No bluetooth... so they screwed me over. I am pretty sure that they knew it also, since they had opened the package,removed the US power adapter and replaced it with an expansys brand power adapter.

So I sent it back to them.

But I really want the European version. Who knows where I can find the European NX73V online, except from sonystyle' s store? ( too expensive there).

Thanks,

M

Expansys are usually very good, I can't believe they would be stupid enough to pull a stunt like that!

 

Try dabs.com they claim to have the NX-73 in stock, though interestingly there is no mention of BT in the specifications.  I would email for confirmation prior to placing any order.  The dabs link to the NX-73 is here:

Comet in the UK are listing one that definitely refers to being BT enabled but the price appears to have sales tax included (VAT).  Comet is a retail chain so you would have to check that they would be prepared to export and make sure that you get the tax free price.

I bought my NX73 from Procom in London in their store...they also offer the NX73 online - this is the Euro version with Bluetooth. The link to their website is:

They will ship to the US, although I think you will need to contact them directly to find out what sort of costs and customs charges are involved.

Amazon.com in the UK has it on their website, but will only ship to the UK and Ireland. Here is the link:

I don't know how strict they are on their shipping to locations, it may be worth a try. Also the ad doesn't mention BlueTooth in the ad.
