Default Nikon D200 for 700 Euros....too good to be true?

Anyone ever heard of this web site?

http://euden.co.uk/items.php?id=13321369

They are advertising Nikon and Canon cameras at what can only be (at least
to me) impossible prices. Anyone ever heard of them? I checked
www.resellerratings.com but this company (Euden) does not appear there.
Seems too good to be true.... sigh

Don't they just ship from the far east direct to you, the customer? You'll
likely be liable for import duty and VAT.

Curious. They list the 10D for more than the 20D.

Well, reading their website it looks like they're acting as an
intermediary for suppliers in other countries (eg Hong Kong etc). They're
not hiding this - they actually state it. So watch out for things like UK
specific models, UK warrantees, import taxes/VAT payable on delivery, etc.

Some of the items look like stock clearance (old models) or bankrupt
stock etc.

So you /could/ pick up a bargain as long as you know exactly what you are
doing/getting - caveat emptor.

They're acting like a clearing house for multiple suppliers so the 10D
and 20D could be coming from different sources and priced accordingly.
