There is only a shipping charge of around $100 more or less. I have one question why is the PSR 2000 at the same sight listed for about $1000. Am I not being fair in my comparison, just because Synthplanet is in Europe doesn't disclude it from a price comparison. The truth is the stores here in the U.S. don't sell arrangers like in Europe, "quantity wise" so they price them where they feel that the keyboard category fits, we are talking profit! Why would I as a store owner not charge $700 more for a KB that has a abundance of more features. If you walked into a store and looking for an inexpensive pro arranger and saw the PA 80 and the PSR 2000, compared specs. With the PA 80 costing less than $240 more; how many PSR 2000's would they sell? I'm not even sold on the PA 80 yet, although it seems to be the KB for me when comparing specs, price, and sounds; but we must not be blind to it's bang for the buck. I must mention again with the 3.0 upgrade adding sampling etc.. how can you not agree. I do agree that the PSR 2000 is a great KB but for a little more you get an arranger workstation. I would like to just say that everyone has been helpful and I narrowed my choices down to a PA 80 "obviously", Ketron SD1, Technics 6500. Although they were not in my original choices I have found more info on these boards and am trying to actually try one out. SORRY PSR 2000 fans but for a little more money these other boards offer a lot more.
