Shehata ouds via NileShop (or someone else)?

Hola comrades!

I am looking for a Shehata oud, and have read on this forum that NileShop is the way to go. I emailed the addy on their site (sales@nileshop.net) about a week ago asking about a particular Shehata that I like. I have gotten no response, so I emailed Maurice at info@mauriceouds.com, but have also gotten no response.

Does anyone have a better contact method that I might use? I was hoping to avoid international toll charges, so a direct email of some sort would be helpful. That, or if anyone knows of another reliable reseller that sends to the US.

Shukran y'all,

You should ask Mike the owner of this site. He is the one who helped me get in touch with Maurice and to order one.

Hi -- I'm about to put my mint condition 2 year old Shehata on the market -- haven't organized myself to post it formally yet, but if you're interested in getting a basically new Shehata, let me know (best to e-mail me: peterchloe@shaw.ca ) and I'll send some pix.....

Thanx

Hi there, I am also looking to sell my Al Aseel oud made by Shehata in 1999. If you are interested, you can see pics of it in my post from a couple of days ago called "Selling my Al Aseel oud". Let me know!
