If you do go for a personal import (which is how I got my Sony 505 a couple of years ago), the original poster needs to consider the additional costs that postage, VAT, Duty & handling charges will incur, which can easily wipe out the cost savings - it's not that straight-forward.

Good point. I ordered my PP from the US and am in Australia. I didn't have any additional fees to pay but I know for some reason you get hit with additional fees in the UK. I did of course have postage to pay but it was still far cheaper to buy one there than here.
