I have bought photographic equipment from KEH and had no problems. Please ask the local tax authorities about any tax issues beforehand. In Denmark we must pay customs (3-5%) + VAT (25%) when we do business outside the EU of the total cost - shipping included. So, it's quite expensive. Also check out www.perissuchmaschine.de where you can find new stuff in Germany, sorted after the selling price.

Only decent source for used equipment in town is Rajala at Hallituskatu (good store for new stuff, bougth my *ist D there). But for Pentax stuff whole Finland is rather difficult these days, it used to be little better before, most of my Pentax stuff is purchased used. Two good used stores in Finland are "Mr Kamera" at helsinki (http://www.digipartner.com/mr3/ ) and "Kuva-Lenita" at Raahe ( http://www.kuvalenita.fi/ ->Kamerakauppa->"k�ytetyt" or "poistolaitteet" , bougth my A300/2.8 there two years ago). Also, have you tried www.ebay.de, there are sometimes good offerings. I personally have not tested yet, other untried addresess in germany are Team-Foto (http://www.team-foto.de/index2.html) and AC -foto (http://www.ac-foto.com/ , see Marc's fotob�rse).
