As you are putting new variables into equation - now is buyng direct from Amazon in the US - and If I was in your shoes, I would make a simulation into making that buying from Amazon: buying the Sony, seeing how much they will charge you for the transport, and try to find how much you will pay for costumes and VAT in Spain when the device enters the country.

One more thing: buying the Sony from the US and you will not have the European warranty for it.
Hmm, but if I buy it from the UK I *shouldn't* have to pay VAT right? Only if I bought from outside EU (maybe I'm wrong).

And I already knew I can buy the Cybook / Sony / Hanlin in Spanish websites, but they are extremely overpriced compared to buying directly from UK... I plan to spend only 200ish € in a device. (not 250/280 + shipping).

"According to waterstones system", the Sony would only cost me 198pounds (194 + 4 "surface shipping") = 207 €

Where can I get the cheapest Cybook from UK? (I think waterstones doesn't sell it, and in pixmania uk as I said previously it costs 220pounds + shipping, and being the same or worse than the sony, i'd prefer the later!)

Thanks!!
