This company will ship it to you. http://www.netzmarkt.de/thomann/thoiw2_artikel-167901.html The price quoted has already taken into account the difference in VAT, take a look at their site it explains it all on there. Gunny -----Original Message----- From: Nigel Kirkby [mailto:nigel.kirkby@...] Sent: 08 March 2004 12:56 To: DTXpress@yahoogroups.com Subject: [DTXpress] Buying from abroad I live in the UK, and have just been searching for prices on the new roland td-3s v-compact kit, which I am considering alongside the DTxpressIII as a first edrum kit. At http://www.blackfield.de you can get the roland kit for 765 euros, including tax, which equates to #510 - substantially less than the #749 I believe is the RRP for this kit in the UK. There isn't a price for the dtxpressIII yet. As mains voltage is the same between germany and the UK, is there anything to prevent me saving a few hundred pounds and buying from abroad? Will I have to pay any additional import tax - this price includes german VAT at 16% already. My brother has just moved to germany, so i'll probably visit him soon, and could buy it en route and bring it back to the UK myself. I can accept that the guarantee will probably be invalid, or at the very least it'll be expensive to return the kit to germany if it goes wrong, but does anyone on the group have any experience of this kind of thing?
