There are still good buys at wholesale from European suppliers, but most of the fly by nighter importers have drifted off to greener pastures as they are finding that there is lot easier way to make quick flip money, instead of having to pay someone to shop out a machine for them to get it to a decent playable standard and then trying to make a profit on top.

If you are importing for the purposes of resale you either do the shop out work yourself to minimise that area of outlay and passing that saving onto the buyer or you pay someone to do it and add a few grand to the end price tag - which then gets listed on ebay unsold for months as advertising bait all whilst incurring cost of inventory.
