Do you really have to pay a 100% sales tax when purchasing a camera ?
You should take a trip to Sweden ......... I gather their VAT is only 25%
and with buying an M9 you could fly round trip 1st class on SAS and still
have money left over out of the 75% VAT you saved.
Second thoughts, VAT in the UK is only 17% but slated to go to 20% before
the summer is over.
Phew ........................!
