Where to buy HED wheels?
I've been looking at the HED Ardennes and was wondering if anyone knows of a good place to purchase HED wheels at a discount/less than MSRP? Any suggestions (other than the obvious response of ebay)?

HED is one of those companies that is very strict about its dealers' pricing on its product.
You charge M.S.R.P. for that model year. Or else.

Unless you buy used, there is little(or more likely no) chance of finding them any less than MSRP.

I remember trying to find the Bastognes wheels used but had a hard time doing so.

Hi,
I have the same understanding about MSRP and Hed.
I am very interested in the Ardennes wheels too. I have also been looking to get a Hed 3C front wheel but haven't been successful yet.

This thread is about the cheapest places to get HED.
(sorry, feeling a little juvenile tonight--the run did me in).
