Thanks. Will (or would one expect that) the lack of sales tax make them cheaper than (for example) Samy's? I am not familiar with the effects of sales tax, other than that it's a NY (I think) artifact. Thinking outside the box (and as the present is neither a surprise nor expensive at $32 from Samy's, so should skip customs easily), would it make better sense if I ordered it myself? Would sales tax be dropped then from Ado and B&H? Kostas
