Hi,
After much searching and deliberation i've finally decided on buying the DC800 Pro kit to take with me to Fiji in Dec. In the UK this will cost me about £580 ($1135) but ordering off US sites like Scubatoys.com i can get it for about £370 [10% disc for scubaboard] ($720) but i don't know how much i'm going to get stung for when it arrives due to import duty and VAT (delivery will be about £45/$88).
Has anyone in the UK bought one, or a camera of equal cost, and had to pay import tax on it? With about £150 difference before tax I'm curious as to how much it would be, can anyone tell me please?
many thanks
