On to Plan B. I can buy the computer on line from the US and have it shipped free to a UK address---but I would have to eat the VAT tax--still comes out much cheaper and no shipping costs. So happens my daughter lives in the UK and I will be visiting her in August this year. So I can have it shipped to her and pick it up and bring it home and thumb my nose at the EU as I leave with my computer. But you know the "boys and their toys" problem--we want it in our hands now! So decided to check other dive shops in the UK and found the Aqua Lung computer for even less--516 pounds (no VAT included I think) but no combo price--transmitter 129 pounds--so it came out to 645 pounds or $819 US dollars--getting better all the time. Their website also said certain products were restricted and couldn't be shipped out of the EU---grrrr- so add the item to the cart and we will let you know using your address if we can ship it to you. Registered an account with my US address--logged in---added the computer and transmitter to the cart and wait what's this? No warning, no nothing---just the price and a box showing my shipping charges of 22 pounds---hmmmm I'm a bit befuddled here. So before I pull the trigger I shot them a email this morning to double check if they for certain will ship the computer to me in the US. Waiting for a reply before buying and I can pay for it with PayPal since its going to the same address as billing. So I'll wait and see and Plan B is always there for me if I need to go that route--wish me luck!
