    Well if you have friends of family in the States then its not a issue, but including postage $10 and the cost $107,$113 & $112 its still only $157,163 & 162 which according to xe.com is £86 !

    So if you do have friends or family and even paying them the cheap shipping UPS cost, its still almost £100 less then the UK price.

    a quick google for prices came up with:-
    Samsung Digimax i6 (BLACK) - £169.00 - Digital Camera Company
    Samsung Samsung Digimax I6 Silv - £229.89 - Dixons
    Samsung Digimax i6 - £192.98 - Bestcameras - St Helens

    just thought its a bit of bargain if your able to

    All three of the items on Ebay.com! Not co.uk The seller only ships to United States and the postage is $50! Did I miss something?

    Right at the very bottom of the description is the following statement.

    "PLEASE READ THIS ---- There has been a wrong shipping price put in this listing, shipping is $10 NOT $50 "

    Hope this helps, I am tempted as I would love sometime thats slips into the pocket and takes a decent pic, my trusty Kodak at 5mp is very good, but a little on the large side :rolleyes:

    latest bid being $112 with 12 hours to go is not the same as selling it for $112.
    The offer sounded too good to be true so i checked the completed listings for the digimax - most are selling for $250 to $320 - and will only ship to the US. Once you add in p&p from the US you might save 5 GBP compared to Jessops. Not really that great a bargain considering the wait. Also, on digital-cameras.com, its selling for 170 GBP (+6 GBP for p&p).

    I know my next digital camera is going to be brought State side when I do finally get around to buying the Casio Exilim EX-1000. When it means saving £100 off the UK price. But normally electronics is cheaper Stateside. The PS3 (60GB version) will be £425 and $599 (£322), so the UK prices is over £100 more.

    i just bought the casio s600... needed a decent digital camera and one that fits in my pocket.... it also takes mpeg 4 vga quality video, so can take about 3-4 hours of vga on a 2GB SD card.... not bad me thinks.....

    Some, but the ones in my local store are not that good a discount, a tenner off one and £15 off another. Stock varies by store so it's pot luck really.

    yes it does, but there is a £100 price difference....

    i could have gotten the discontinued z750 for the same price as the s600 but decided against it, for looks and size... 16MM thick and credit card size ;)
