yep, it's at $1756.58 at the Mexico store. Not taking into account shipment + México sales taxes + import taxes + local sales taxes on the shipment service, also no inventory

Supplied from NA so if you commit to purchase they will order one for you.
First ask for a lead time.

You say you want an SDS2104X Plus.

This happens to be the most popular upper entry level scope from Siglent.

BK Precision happen to rebadge Siglent oscilloscopes. Not the latest ones, but certainly the SDS2104X Plus – it’s called 2565B there.

Tequipment would ship BK Precision to your country, as you say. Unfortunately I see a price of $2340,- for the 2565B, so buying the original in Mexico might still be the better option…

This isn’t a Latin America problem, it’s one that exists everywhere, because of the territory agreements already described.

Switzerland is right in the middle of Europe, yet some items are very hard to get because of such agreements, which sometimes end up with Switzerland having no official distribution channel, yet distributors in neighboring countries contractually barred from exporting to here. Sometimes it even depends on the product line, with some of a manufacturer’s products being trivial to get while others are nigh on impossible.

Heck, it happens even to USA sometimes.

Perhaps. But it's economy and probability. If it'll be more economic to dump the broken unit and to bring the replacement from abroad privately again, then why not. However, it can be not the only consideration.

For instance, the Siglent brand is banned here through regulation. Here is an official registry for the T&M equipment, which is approved for use in the country. It's illegal to import a not listed instruments. Of course, every more less known brand is registered there. Even Rigol, as a favorite pet project of Chinese government, was provided with enough cache to pay all the necessary bribes for whitelisting. But Dingyang Tech took different approach. It partnered with the local distributor who's selling the same products under the distributor's brand, painted differently and at doubled price. That's total rubbish. Although it's not a problem to smuggle a unit or two from abroad, later the owner will have a warranty/service problems and moreover, the instrument can't be used in any legal business.
