I'm a Danish resident living in Denmark. I have decided to buy a Kindl Paperwhite with 3G. It seems to me that Danes normally have to buy their Kindl from amazon.com and have it shipped to Denmark. With VAT, import duty etc. that would cost me $307. With the recent changes in exchange rates, it will be ridiculously expensive in Danish crowns.

Meanwhile in Germany, it only costs €99 + freight etc. http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00AG4KR2G/r...d_i=3645098031

However, I cannot buy the Kindl with my Danish amazon account, but I'm going to Germany in two weeks, where I am gonna stay at a friend's place. Will it then be possible just type her address as the delivery address and pay with a Danish credit card? And if possible, will I then experience any implications, when I take it back to Denmark?

Thank you in advance!

All the best.

The easiest way to do it would be for your friend to buy it for you, and you pay your friend. If she indicates that the Kindle is a gift, it will not be registered to her account, and you can then simply register it to your account. There's no problem at all with registering a Kindle in your own country that was bought in a different one.
