Buying a camera from an online store to be shipped to South Africa
Hi,
I have researched prices and know that I will save a lot by buying from an international website (online shop) rather than directly from a shop in SA. As far as I know I will only have to pay VAT on the purchase. Can anyone please advise which websites will ship to SA, takes VISA/MasterCard and is reliable. I am interested in the Canon S2. Thanks,

You better research the store first , you cant trust everyone. Buying
local has alot of advantages, like what if it is defective or damaged in shipping, then what, or what if they wont ship it. Saving a few bucks often costs alot more then you realise . There are plenty of documented bad experiances in this area. Google.

An excellent camera. I can't recommend a dealer, but don't make your choice based on lowest price. Make sure you study http://www.resellerratings.com/ very closely.

Try http://www.buydig.com I'm not sure if they ship there or not but I have
made several purchases from them and been very happy. They have great prices as well. Brad "xto" wrote in message ups.com...
