| Need some help with German
I'm trying to get a price from http://www.hificomponents.de/
on a pair of Infinity Beta 50 speakers.They have them listed for €480 on their website but it doesn't say if it's for a single speaker or a pair.I've emiled them twice and got several replies telling me to use some online form.
The form only gives me the price not how many speakers are included.
This is what I wrote to them in the first email
Guten tag
Was ist Ihr preis für ein paar Infinity Beta 50 ?
//stefan
Is them wordings correct ? Or might they have misunderstood ? | ![Skywalker[TSG] is offline](http://images.techimo.com/timo_images/forum/images/statusicon/user_offline.gif)

Wieviele Lautsprecher sind in der Infinity Beta 50 und wieviel kosten sie?
Danke
PM Xtreeme, that man can speak German fluently.
In your phrase, you asked the price for a pair of infinity speakers... i asked how many are in, and how much do they cost, you may get the same response  . | |

You should be a bit more clear on your question.
You're asking for the price on a pair of speakers, they're replying to check the form.
You should ask if the price on the form is for the pair, or only for a single.
Sorry I don't remember much german from HS classes 
Ich spreche sehr bisschen deutsche

From the info link in their site:
Are the loudspeaker-prices per item?
Yes. Only in exceptional cases loudspeakers are combined as set or system (e.g. home cinema-systems). In these cases the set price is specially indicated.

I speak German too, since I'm Austrian, so if you still need help let me know | |
