FrogmeatThis is true. I'm in UK and by using Amazon US I get all the import fees included in a final price. This saves days here as I don't need to wait for a card through the door, then wait a day and then pay extra while I collect. Also I chose expedited delivery and will get the item in just a few days tracked to my door. And for me it's still about US $10 cheaper.
FrogmeatThey’re worth it if amazon refuses to ship the item to your country, and everyone in your country inflates the price disproportionately (Australia).
