I'm in Cardiff. I ordered my Sony Reader new from an Ebay shop. If it breaks then I shall send it to the USA and have it returned to some American relatives, who can re-send it to me. But I've had it since last May, with no problems.
Be aware that you will have to pay VATon a Reader imported from the USA, and that ParcelForce will charge about £8 for collecting the VAT. In other words, add about £40 -£45 to the price quoted by the seller.
