Personally, I ONLY buy overseas unless it is an item that exceeds a certain size or weight consideration. I buy many items regualrly from the US, especially car parts and always come off saving a huge percentage. You can fly to the States and buy it yourself for the savings you have suggested. Let me give you a small example of non astronomy savings I recently did.
I needed two brake kits comprising 2 seals, 2 dust boots and 2 "o" rings. Best price here in Australia, $70 a set.
Normal US price from all dealers, $11.95 a set. You do the math. Especially true if you keep your purchase under $1000 AU as it does not attract any import duties. I say buy overseas unless you have extraordinary circumstances.
