The EP–1320 Medieval is out of stock in Switzerland and requires a US freight forwarder for immediate delivery.

The sudden demand for the EP–1320 Medieval

The release of the Teenage Engineering EP–1320 Medieval has created a significant supply chain bottleneck in early 2026. As the world's first electronic medieval instrument, this sampler and sequencer has captured the attention of beatmakers globally with its unique library of hurdy-gurdys, lutes, and Gregorian chants. For musicians in Zurich, Geneva, and Basel, the primary obstacle is availability. Local European distributors are reporting backorder delays that extend into late summer, meaning that utilizing a freight forwarder is the only viable path to obtaining this unit before the next production cycle.

Buy It For Me

This device is not merely a novelty; it is a powerful 96MB instrument with specialized foley and pressure-sensitive keys. Because it is a niche, high-demand item, it often sells out within minutes of a restock. Monitoring us trends shows that American retailers are receiving larger allocations than their European counterparts, creating a narrow window for Swiss buyers to act.

Sourcing the EP–1320 Medieval from US retailers

US-based retailers like B&H Photo Video and Sweetwater have maintained a more consistent inventory of the EP–1320 Medieval throughout February 2026. When you shop us store locations, you are tapping into a much larger supply pool. The challenge for a Swiss resident is that many of these stores do not offer direct international shipping for specialty electronics, or they charge exorbitant rates that make the purchase impractical.

Why US inventory is more reliable

The logistics network for Teenage Engineering is heavily weighted toward North American distribution hubs. Consequently, while a shop in Bern may wait months for a single shipment, US retailers receive weekly restocks. To bypass the geographical restrictions, you must use a freight forwarder to provide a local presence in the United States.

Securing your order with the BuyForMe service

Ordering high-demand electronics from the US often involves more than just a shipping address. Many major US retailers, including those that stock Teenage Engineering gear, have strict security protocols that frequently lead to order cancellations for international customers. This is a critical issue for Swiss musicians trying to secure a limited-edition sampler.

The Problem: Stores like B&H, Sephora, or Apple often block international credit cards or automatically decline orders that are sent to known forwarding addresses. If your billing address is in Switzerland but your shipping address is in the US, the merchant's fraud detection system may flag and cancel your order instantly.

The Solution: comGateway offers a proxy shopping solution known as the "BuyForMe" service. Instead of you attempting to navigate the merchant's checkout with a foreign card, we buy the item on your behalf using a US domestic credit card. This bypasses the regional payment filters and ensures your order is processed successfully.

Benefit: This is the safest way to guarantee your EP–1320 Medieval order doesn't get cancelled during the high-pressure window of a restock. By using our assisted purchase service, you eliminate the risk of payment rejection, which is the most common reason Swiss buyers fail to secure US-only electronics.

Shipping logistics from the US to Switzerland

Once your EP–1320 Medieval arrives at our warehouse, our international shipping service takes over. We provide you with a tax-free us address in Oregon, which means you save on US sales tax—a cost that can add up to 10% to your purchase price at other forwarding locations. This initial saving often covers a significant portion of the subsequent shipping costs to Switzerland.

Calculating your landing costs

Before finalizing your purchase, it is essential to understand the total investment. You can use our shipping calculator to get an accurate estimate of the costs involved. Because the EP–1320 is a lightweight device, it is an ideal candidate for FedEx international shipping or DHL international shipping, both of which offer rapid transit times to Swiss addresses.

Swiss customs and import tax considerations

When you ship to Switzerland, your package will be subject to local regulations. As of 2026, the Swiss Value Added Tax (MWST) remains at 8.1%. This import tax is calculated based on the total value of the goods plus the cost of transport. Additionally, the Swiss Federal Office for Customs and Border Security (BAZG) may apply a small administrative fee for processing the clearance.

Unlike many other European nations, Switzerland's import tax rates are relatively moderate, making it financially viable to source electronics from the US. For more specific details on prohibited items or weight limits, please consult our FAQ section. Ensuring your paperwork is correct is the fastest way to move your medieval beat machine through customs without delay.
