it comes to $225 with the fedex shipping.

The local quote I have is $389 so basically I'm looking for a "go for it" from you guys. What to do?

Thanks!

dont forget the convert your money and you will have to pay taxes on it as well.

And don't forget the brokerage fee which could run you another $50 plus. And if it breaks or you have problems with it, although ASM is pretty good about online help, it's not the same as being able to go back to where you bought it from and have them help you.
It's still your decision but I have rarely found it to be very much cheaper to order online from the US - and I have to order and ship everything where I live. Just do your research and sharpen your pencil!
