HEGEL - Is it really made in Norway ?


Not unlike Ayon, where it is just printed "Austria" and not "Made in Austria" (the usual and official terminology), are HEGEL products actually made and assembled in Norway or just "designed" in Norway and assembled somewhere in China?

I have tried getting a clear-cut answer from dealers with no success. Juste like for Ayon gear by the way.

Thanks if you can help.

Nonoise, Vez, Joecasey and Zd542,

You have all made valid points, as have I. I do not understand how stating these simple facts can be construed as "a tempest in a tea cup" or as "a crusade". IMO, this is turning the matter on its head by trying to go after the messengers instead of staying focused on the issues.

I think one thing we can all agree on is that there should be truth in advertising but I would go so far as to say that most companies would view that as a quaint notion.

Pandora's box was opened a long time ago in this matter.

All the best,
Nonoise

Joecasey, Ps
I'm sorry if I created to you the impression that there is something suspicious by expressing my opinion on this matter. You definitely don't agree with me, but please make an effort to point out were I am wrong.

This is a silly crusade against Hegel, imo.
The definition of a crackpot is someone who won't change his mind and won't change the subject. That's what's happening here.

If you don't like Hegel, don't buy it.
If you think the company is a fraud, file a complaint with the appropriate authorities. There's nothing to be gained by prosecuting the case here.

To those who think it's ok to support Hegel despite their unethical practices, go ahead and do so. No one here is stopping you. But to some who realized that there is something shady going on would like to thank those who speaks out. There is no need to attack each other here. I believe in the freedom of choice.
