Oh yes, sorry.. that was what I meant; I won't be taxed again once it arrived here in NL.

At the moment a PW2 plus shipping and tax is about €152, only €13 more than on Amazon.de. However, I'm also concerned about defects, if there are screen problems I wouldn't want to have to send it back to the US (even if Amazon refunds the shipping costs).
The calculated amount if ordering from Amazon.com --> NL (inclusive shipping + estimated tax) is around €152

Buying from Amazon.co.uk and post to a friend will be £109 + ship to NL by the said friend (£12) = €145
(buying from .de is the same, we still need to post it to DE address).

Waterstones in NL - €179

Option 1 and 2 is not too much different in terms of pricing but indeed, I am also worried about the return. *argh* I hope amazon has one with .nl soon. *eyes rolling*

PS: €179 is PW1 price at Waterstones, back in Jun 2013. They will not exchange if you think the screen is not to your liking though... unless it is defect (as in like cannot be used). I asked the guy there myself since I heard so many blotchy screen issues.

Mine says, "Shipping Now," but no serial number yet. Credit card shows the amount as "Pending."

I think so too! I have noticed for my Amazon Prime one day packages Amazon can sometimes wait till mid afternoon to ship them so I'm not too surprised mine hasn't shipped. Hopefully soon though!

Bug on Amazon shipment software and my shipping date changed from Oct 2nd to 3rd.

I had applied Amazon Visa rewards points of $8.75 to my pre-order.

Last night, I placed another order, a footstool, and Amazon tried to again apply those reward points.

Somehow, it put a HOLD on my prior PW2 pre-order.

This morning I had to re-apply my Visa card to pass payment thru again, which changed my shipping date.

Right away I called CS, Mike F. was very pleasant, will report the bug, but could not fix the new shipping date, gave me $5 promotion <sigh> <sigh>.
And my $8.75 points which had totally disappeared from both orders is back on my account, un-applied.

Oh, Mike mentionned that they are now OUT OF STOCK on PW2, will get more on the 10th.

You're so right! My pre-order could have fallen in the out-of-stock.
The CS rep thought I was upset about the points which disappeared, I kept telling him it was the changed shipping date that was the problem, lol!

Good news is that my footstool has shipped.

Europe's shipping date is from the 9th, does your pre-order gives you a date?

Never saw that one either, mine is "Preparing for shipment", thanks to the snafu with rewards points.
