I went through this recently with some quiet cooling fans.
Cheapest one I found was $37 +$10 freight on trademe.
So I bought two from quietpc.co.uk for 6 pounds each plus 2 pounds
shipping. Which totalled $27 NZ.
On the other hand, work bought an ATA from Patton in Australia.
We got stung from GST and import duty, and an $800 item ended up being
around $1350 and took a month to clear customs.
Plus- imagine the cost of returning anything for a warranty claim.
These are the hidden costs and risks which an importer takes care of for
you.
