I run a small design consultancy here in the UK (OK, it’s just me!) and I am looking to purchase the above (preferably A4). However, I might as well be seeking the holy grail as it doesn’t appear to exist. 95% of Wacom’s "authorised retailers" don’t stock any of their products and 95% of the ones that do are still only stocking the Intuos2 and at prices more than Wacom’s RRP for the Intuos3! I found it on one site and they wanted over £450, £100 more than the RRP!
This is insane. I am *NOT* going to purchase an inferior product (which is what, in effect, the Intuos2 now is). It is my policy to purchase the best there is, and I believe Wacom to be the leading manufacturer of tablets, and I want to purchase their best model.
Can someone assist me in finding a UK-based online retailer which isn’t going to rip me off, has telephone support/customer services (Dabs was amongst the authorised dealers, but I will *NEVER* deal with Dabs again – I’ve placed two orders with them since they introduced their ‘e-ticket’ system – I ended up having to threaten them with Trading Standards and small claims action before I received a refund and a – very grudging apology)?
All I want is to purchase the best tablet at the best price, but no-one stocks it!
Thanks for any help!
You could always bite the bullet and use a high street store, I know that PCWorld (I hate to say it) sells them and they have an online store too.
