Even if with most magazines in some form a sponsor is in it and/or behind it sponsor is in it and/or behind it, it is quite obvious with Amazona. offernsichtlich, managing director is Hans Thomann. With this, even if not badly made sales magazine remains naturally - an objective evaluation of the products - on the distance.
Amazona - From Thomann - Interestingly made sales magazine
So always exercise a fair amount of skepticism.

People put your fingers away from private Internet sellers who do not take back anything. take anything back. We also do not recommend any NoName products, even even if they are advertised so full-bodied. Where China is on it, is also China in it.
The house brands of the big German dealers are mostly of decent quality, even if they (apart from the often favorable price) have hardly have anything special to offer.
