I could gather, until this month, some money to buy a 2144.
Too bad for me, there is no more unit on CurtPalme website...
I contacted KAL, but he confirmed to me there was no more unit.
If someone knows were I can find a 2144 for around 2500$, please tell me !
Maybe substance can help me ^^ !

He said it’s a trade in that he expects it to be available in a week. He will check for functionality and give it a year warranty. He said it should be around $250 to ship it to Japan.

Dear substance,
Thank you very much for your message !
And thank you for asking about details.
Is it an open box unit ?

For a unit in "new condition", $3145 would be good for me.
If it is a open box unit, do you think it should possible to negociate the price ? (something around 2800$ and 3000$)
About the sending fees, with a sending by USPS (Priority Mail International), 10 days, I found something around 155$ for a 15 kilogram, 70cmx50cmx30cm packet to japan.
Could you ask if it is possible to get a price around 150$-180$ for sending ? (I don't mind if it takes long time to arrive !)

I wait for your message !

I think you should contact Jim directly and negotiate the price and shipping. I believe the shipping cost is just an estimate. I am not financially afliated with Lumagen, I have no influence or cut in the price. I just do my best to help people. Mention that you got his contact and this information from me. I will also tell him that you will be contacting him. He is very friendly and reasonable. My name is Mahir. His email is jim@lumagen.com. Let me know how it works out.

Thank you again substance for helping me !
I could get the unit from lumagen !
Little bit expensive perhaps (3145$), but sending fees were cheapest (171$) for Japan, and I didn't had to pay Paypal fees !
I will recieve it next week !
I will post again to give my impression about the lumagen !
It costed me 2 month of salary^^... I pray for a great improvement from my DVDO edge.
