[QUOTE="PsyCLown, post: 203222, member: 12654"] The one thing which scares me is customs and the import duties.... I am not 100% sure how it all works and how much I will end of paying and do not really want to have an unpleasant surprise when going to collect the items and I paid more getting the item here than the item itself. Also its not always easy finding a place which sells the item and is willing to ship to Africa... Where do you guys find these places or how do you arrange for it to get shipped to SA? I am sure there are a few members here who have done some importing on AV equipment, perhaps they could enlighten us / me? I would only consider shipping if I am unable to obtain the product locally, or locally at a reasonable price. I would personally MUCH rather purchase the product locally - you do not have to wait as long, generally a bit safer, warranty and so on. As well as being able to see / listen to the product at times before purchasing. [/QUOTE]
