Buying overseas is usually cheaper, but there are warranty issues. If it is only a bit more expensive here in OZ, i will buy here to avoid lost in mail or other occasional problems. Items over aus $1,000 including postage and insurance will cop GST. As I also tend to buy second hand if possible, the warranty issue does not apply. Some of the fancier camera lenses tend to be cheaper in the US. Second hand is not always cheaper. Some lenses I have been looking at recently on ebay go for MORE second hand than new through some of the cheaper drop shipping outfits eg DWI . Moral of the story-doest thou homework and ye will reapest thou savings.
