but if you factor in a repair from JPS and the potential vat and duty fees and balance it against UK prices I think it still works out cheaper. As I have said before I have never paid more than £125 for a body repair and in owning 8 or 9 Pentax bodies I have only needed two repairs out of warranty and one inside warranty period. To have to pay duty and get a faulty body is damned unlucky....

Very tempting price, given the UK cost. But the warranty issue puts me off.
If there is anything wrong with it, I have a strong suspicion that you'd end up paying Johnsons for a repair.
Isn't that part of the gamble though???

I get a £1000 per item included with my house contents and that includes out the house too. Only proviso as with most policies is if left in the car it needs to be in the boot.

Actually the YouTube thing is wrong, the major labels got together to form vevo and get all their videos removed from YouTube.

What's the point of having a website if it's not for self promotion or for selling your wares? If you're selling goods and services from your site you have to have your Whois available as part of the ICANN rules I believe...
