I don't think a savings of $14 is worth it, isn't a little happiness worth $14 to you, that's just a little more than a movie ticket (which is up to $13 in my area). if the difference was $50 or $75 I would say perhaps being patient is worth it, but $14, I don't think so.

Wll, in my country $1 goes to around 45INR...and Movie ticket costs around 100INR (~$2.5)
With import and customs it will come up to as $20-25 if kindle really drops to $99.

I had thought they wouldn't ship the Sponsored version internationally? But maybe I'm wrong? Amazon claims that they only sell it in the U.S. However, if you are having it shipped to someone in the U.S. and then sent to India, maybe you could instead get the refurbished Kindle Wifi, if price is an issue.
I haven't heard any rumors of the exact price of the K4 though. Probably we will find out in September if any of the K4 rumors are true, so if you are thinking seriously of the potential K4, I'd advise waiting a month and seeing what Amazon does.

No, amazon is not shipping it. A company here doing it (after keeping their cut of course). They buy from amazon and ship it to India. But they wont sell refurbished K3.
By the way, can we actually be sure that we will get to know something in September?

The problem is, when the K4 comes out, you will REALLY want one.
It is like computers. You can wait and pay less for what you want today, but you will no longer want it.

Actually I was hoping that when K4 comes out, K3 prices will drop further which will make it more affordable.
