Hence, I shall order from Banggood, though I was very close to changing my mind. Thanks everyone

You might want to contact Booxtor first and see if he can list the cost of the device separately from the shipping on the invoice.
If possible, and I don't know if it is, you would only be assessed on the price of the ereader.
It's worth considering due to the 2 year warranty and the after service care which Booxtor provides. I hesitated a long time before making the leap, but am glad that I did so. Especially when I see the problems which are arising with a different 13.3" ereader which I had previously been considering.
Best of luck whichever route you choose to go.
