A french dude wrote he bought it from shopereaders.com which is crazy expensive (1500 USD) and ships from Canada. With import taxes and shipping it would nearly cost 2000 Euro to import..
Is there anyone here from Europe or Germany who has bought this Reader from Europe or Overseas?
Luckily I have got the Hanvon E920 with 200 DPI about a year ago

Since Sony (or what I could reach of them) has proven practically impossible to talk to or with, I, too have considered buying the devices in the US and forwarding them to Germany by one of the many shipping services.
I've not found any conclusive answer to the question of customs and taxes for imports from the US into the EU and particularly Germany - mostly because I couldn't figure out the correct TARIC. Can anyone help with making a precises estimate of what additional fees would to be expected?
Re the one on ebay. Yes, "only" 1600 Euro. As if the stock price wasn't high enough, these prices are outspokenly ridiculuous.
