Huh??

This is a bit weird. My 2k has given up the will to live and im thinking of getting a 1k however in the uk the black one is £699 and the blue £529 in the states they seem to come in at the same price? I don't know maybe there's something I've missed...

Buy the Blue one... they are the same...

seems that UK and France are similar in marketing policy: here in Paris the black MPCs are not yet available, and while the shops await for them they are selling out the blue ones at a cheaper price. So get a blue one, if it's cheaper than black: I own both and can guarantee that they are I D E N T I C A L.

at turnkey they do the blue for £529.99 and the black for £599.99.

imuso.co.uk does the blue for £519.99.

I tried to get exact price info on red/blue mpcs in some German online shops and they all said that though their catalogue still shows the red/blue for 820-860 Euros, actually they are not available anymore. They could offer the black for me at the price of 977-995 Euros!
