Dear Alan, I shipped an eos ids in this week from NY - here are some tips:
1. I bought mine from Alkit - they were extremely helpful - they should have a small supply now. My contact was: Alan Rosenberg Account Manager Alkit Pro Camera Toll Free 800-846-2600 x709 Or, 212-462-0070 x709 2. The price was $7750 3. If you are shipping it ( and they pack it up and see it being collected from their store!) you are not charged the local tax which I believe is 8% - however if you buy it there and bring it back with you personally they have to charge you this tax. 4, Digital camera and digital bodies do not attract any import tax - the import code is CLASSIFICATION 8525.401100 DIGITAL CAMERA 5. You get charged the vat as you come into the country - obviously if you are registered you can claim this back. This just was charged to my credit card via fedex as itt came in - I had to do no paperwork for this 6. The warantee is not international 7. I opened account & organized shipping mine with Fedex last Friday at 3pm Uk time - it arrived 9am Monday morning!
