That's right, the EU price without VAT is set at 419.32 EUR (this is from the irexshop.com); what I see as a problem is that I have to pay the VAT twice: once the EU VAT because that is
the only offer I can find online (which makes for the final price of €499) AND the Croatian VAT when the item enters the country (because there is no other way I can get it but thorugh post) and that's additional €115 plus the aforementioned €50 customs.
Talking directly to iRex? I'm afraid they'll react like any other corporation: "sorry, tough luck, it's not our problem".
Although, I've got nothing to lose if I send them or their European reseller an e-mail. (hope dies last
