A Longshot Question: Tool Distributors In/Near Prague?

[jerk_chicken]

This might be a longshot, but I figured I'd try. I live a short time away from Prague, Czech Republic. I went there last weekend and it's a really nice city and prices are quite low compared to Germany.

Does anyone know if there are any tool distributors there, whether they be German or American manufacturers? I am curious to see if those items can be had for cheaper across the border in CZ Krones.

On another note, on my way into CZ, we saw the big buildings for Black and Decker and Dewalt there together.

Well, it just so happens I have a dear friend living there right now. I will ask her to check the lay af the land for ya. Hows that?

Thanks a bunch!

If you ever get a chance to go to Prague, do it. You'll love it. Sadly, I didn't get a chance to eat there, BUT I bought some sort of Bratwurst there that looked red in color, like a spicy meat inside. It turns out that it tasted exactly like a Chorizo. OMG, I haven't had one in such a long time and I really missed it. Shopping is great and the people are really nice. The city is very international and Americans are everywhere.

I'm heading there in June. Hope to spend a week. I might have to detour to Budapest though. We'll see.

I'll let you know what I find out, if anything. Asking a girl about tools? Yeah, I know, that's a sexist remark! She is an accountant though and really doesn't know anything about tools!

Thanks a bunch! Hopefully they'll let me by if I offer Euros or just give me a "Bezahler" discount.

I was in Prague and Budapest in December. They were wonderful and we want to return. There is a car museum in Prague on the hill overlooking the town. I heard it was very good, but it was closed when I was there in 2006. Lots of great old cars on the road. Here's a picture of Prague, and a car seen there. Last is a picture from Budapest.
