My experience with buying OS is that you only save time and not much money. Often if you order from the US you can have the product within a week, wheras the local dealers often "have to order it in". Pricewise it depends on the $AUS. If the dollar goes up, you win if you buy OS because local dealers have bought stock with a low dollar. Dollar goes down, you lose by buying OS if dealers have stock they bought with a high dollar. Don't forget to factor in shipping and GST (on anything over $1000).
