Any European Must-Buys???
 
My daughter is studying in Europe this summer. She will be in Paris through
the end of June and will be spending July in Spain before returning to the
US in early August.

Does anyone know of any radio that would be available in shops in Paris or
Madrid that I couldn't get over here?

Also, does anyone know of a very low-priced place in Madrid or Paris to buy
electronics in general?

Since I'm springing for the trip, I might as well put the girl to work
buying daddy some cool radios while she's away.

Thanks.

There again if she is in Paris there is a good railway service over
(under) to the UK so you may persuade her to have a few days break here
and do a bit of shopping for you. You may find it difficult to find
anything here that is cheaper than in the US though. I tend to buy from
the US and even after taxes etc. it works out less expensive.

Take a look at http://www.eurostar.com/dctm/jsp/index.jsp for the
railway info.
