why are the prices so different????
both are in USD.

And also weird, the 2007 kh muni is *more* in Germany (municycle.com)
than UDC, yet UDC is nearly DOUBLE the cost of Municycle.com for the
2007 cranks! Go figure.

Right. $543 for the KH 2007 muni at municycle.com. $520 at UDC.

Maybe Municycle.com is selling the cranks by the each, while
Unicycle.com USA is selling them by the pair. 😉

The pricing differential on the new KH stuff is strange. Maybe the
currency conversion, shipping and other fees took a big bite out of the
stuff sent to the USA.

If so then they should say it on there. I would be very sad if I
ordered some and I got my package with only one crank.

That was the reason for the wink. I wasn't being serious about it. It

Most of the unicycles and parts in question are manufactured in the far
east. Price differences between Europe and the US probably have
something to do with the cost of getting them to those locations,
including whatever tax or duties are incurred when crossing borders.

Do you know something we don't about how much it cost to build those
unicycles, or the wholesale price from builders, who made the frames
(and DM hubs?) by hand? They were state-of-the-art when new, but since
then they've been passed up by much cheaper models that are as-good or
better. "Evil" is the person who posts accusations without knowledge.

Caught? False? Please provide examples of intentional listing of
incorrect weights. The key word is intentional.

There's a reason for only having "two left!". UDC just needs to update
the prices on those, or give them away, or something....

I received two reply emails almost immediately from municycle.com,
stating that yes, the price for a *_*pair*_* of the 2007 KH polished
aluminum cranks are $64! (not $74 as listed!) *That is indeed _USD_,
not euros.* The shipping is $40! But even with the high shipping
charge, the total is still far less than UDC w/ shipping.

Yes, their time has passed. I love my Wilder, but there's really no
reason to buy one now, except as a rare, handmade collectible. Also a
great unicycle of course, but only if you have money to burn. So I
guess the hope is that eventually buyers will come along for those
"historic" models. For example, the ATU was the first unicycle with a
splined axle (other than custom made ones). Was the Vortex the first
one with a brake?

Other possible reasons for price differences between different sites
selling the same stuff:
- Pricing errors (as noted above)
- "Introductory" prices that may be higher or lower than later ones
- Different costs of doing business based on location and size of
business

you also have to pay an extra 10% for customs to the us. But germany
is way better than UDC US!

I wouldn't mind owning a pair of 165s to augment my 150s. Maybe we
could buy a few sets together and save on shipping???

yeah, materials couldn't have costed more than 80$(generous) for those
frames. You'd have to be a really slow frame builder for the end result
to be 600$

What about the guy who thinks he's getting the best of the best, and
forks out 1500$ for a muni to find out that he still has a flexy
plastic seatbase, no brake(and never will), and a weird random seat
tube size. Just because they where "state of the art" 6 years ago
dosent mean that price is still justifiable. Would you pay tripple the
amount for a 6 year old car that is lower quality than a simillar 2007
model car?

Here's an idea! lets put one of the the cranks on backwards and try to
sell it as a whole new 'unicycle'
(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=613)! Even though
anyone can to this to the unicycle they already own, the novelty wears
off after 5min, and it should have an eccentric wheel. We should be
able to catch some poor [censored] who dosen't know any better, and make a
few bucks. EVIL
