Hmm, I'm not sure how bad astro prices are back home but surely they can't be as bad as the European market.

Basically if something is $500USD over here it's £500. The difference is huge at times. And the real kicker here is when you order something from the US because its cheaper they then hit you with a heap of customs fees and import tax which brings the cost back up to what you would pay anyway.

If you don't have added fees then the US would be a top option.
