I'm looking to buy either a 70-300mm af-s lens or a 100-300 hsm lens for my nikon d40. I always hear that it's a lot cheaper to buy these items abroad.

many thanks

Be aware that any item you order that is sent from outside the EU by a parcel carrier will attract customs charges that can make something cheap become alot more expensive! Theres duty payable on value of goods plus shipping charges, then VAT on that value plus shipping plus duty amount.and then maybe a charge from the carrier for paying it all to customs for you!! Be careful!
