I can't follow you Pete sorry.
How do you come at £25.32?
This from their site:
For most overseas delivery addresses, we apply an Import Handling surcharge for handling the importation of the order into your country of delivery. As importing products from overseas can be a hassle for most of our international customers, we choose to handle this process on your behalf by adding a surcharge to your order total. The purpose of this charge is to simplify the process of buying internationally and make budgeting easier for your purchases.
The final total is all you have to pay to have the order delivered to your door without delay, as it includes shipping, insurance, any import tax, duty, clearance fees and carriers handling charges (i.e. Free Domicile).
This should cover everything right?
edit: So the total amount is right what they say?

That isn't so well defined the DS is in the same range but has no seals and makes you wonder about the K100D for example

What about these link, has anyone done business with them?
Just checked what the cost would be with P&P + import and the total became €32 (£27) for registered airmail so still very good.
And it's Toshiba card which I like to have but are extremely hard to find
Does that include the handling charge to collect the VAT? Or don't you have to pay that in Holland? For UK residents the total cost would be £37 - making it more expensive than a Sandisk...What about these link, has anyone done business with them?

Angela, I just have a look at your site and the photos aren't bad at all so really don't be so modest
This one I really like link
The exposure is good and I really like the composition, it works well because of the lines in it. Normally I don't like text in the photo but here the text isn't that obvious because of the colour and that there are enough highlights to draw your eye away from it.
The only thing I should do is set the image straight, it's a bit leaning to the right.

Those lenses are less corrected most of the time so giving a more pleasant bokeh then the corrected lenses we have today.
The reason is that sharpness is now more important then it was then.

Me neither
Was thinking alone the line of a study I would pick that one... the blinking problem might be more useful though.

Same here, I'm running on 2gb (4 x 512mb) and I feel the need to upgrade but it's still DRR and I also want to upgrade my CPU soon meaning it will be DDR2 or even DDR3.If it was me ... I would go for a full 4 GB of matched pairs - yes 0.5 GB may be "wasted" but performance wise, it would be fine.
James probably has the same dilemma, he might be better off with an AM3 motherboard with AMD Phenom II X4 955 and put 2 x 2gb DDR2 in it so that he can double that when needed.
It's quite a bigger upgrade then some memory but it will keep him going for 4 years or so.
