Hey Guys,

I'm spending half a dozen weeks in Russia, mainly in Zealonagrad and Moscow from December to January, I was wondering if anyone knows if there's a good place to buy a Russian made Oktava MK-012 in the city?

http://www.oktava-online.com doesn't appear to send to New Zealand, and I should be able to get a cheaper price in Russia itself?

Otherwise I will be spending some time on the west coast of the US towards the end of the year (Mostly San Fransisco, but potentially some time in LA) if there are shops there that sell them.
 
I use the Google "Chrome" browser, and it has a built-in translation feature. When I go to this page: http://www.oktava-mics.net/shop/information.php?pages_id=6 it appears to say that Oktava has a storefront at their corporate headquarters in Tula, which appears to be ~100 miles south of Moscow. But they say that there are dealers in Moscow, but also that not all dealers have the full stock of products that you are likely to find in Tula. Anyway that is Oktava's official website, and you can poke around there and see what they say, perhaps find some dealers in Moscow, or maybe send them an inquiry via email, etc. Moscow in January doesn't sound exactly like a picnic in the park. :-( it would be great if you could take a camera and snap some pix of the Oktava works.
 
Thanks for that, hopefully I can find something in Moscow although Tula looks cool (according to Wikipedia the home of the Russian Accordion and Semovar production - wouldn't mind one of each).

Still seeing if there is demand for them back in NZ - I might bring a few back to cover the car rental and traffic police bribing costs.
