I've ordered an HTC Aria, from Amazon rather than ebay, for what seems to be the low side of the going rate on both sites ($255), and device is now in the care of FedEx, en route. I had been congratulating myself for what I saw as a coup, until I had a chat today with FedEx, who informed me that taxes due on the shipment will be NIS 516.38, which is far greater than I had expected. and which pretty well wipes out any price advantage from purchase at Amazon/ebay.etc. Perhaps I have become spoiled by the low customs rates of late for computer gear. Can this sum really be right, not an error or an act of revenge by a crazed and vindictive customs agent? -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
