There's a swiss dealer with them on sale right now: http://www.elektronikladen.ch/index.php/lotstation-fx-951-62.html

But frankly, in the 220v EMEA region, ersa seems to give more bang for your buck. Might wanna take a look at the i-con 1 for example. Similar price, similar performance, but the tips are much cheaper.  (Amazon.de sells them and will ship abroad.)

+1 for adding Ersa to your brands for consideration.  :-+

Regarding a source for genuine 220V Hakko, you might want to take a look at Batterfly (they're selling the FX-951 for 249.49EUR, and they ship internationally).

The problem with both the sites that there is no ENGLISH  |O  :-//

Also I still need to buy a couple of tips for it

does any one knows if I bought the 220v version would the tips for the 110v work with it !

I can't see why not. I believe it is 24V to the tip. Difference between versions is just the transformer I would think..

Actually Batterfly offers their site in both Italian and English.  :-+ Look for the UK flag at the very top & center of the page I linked.  ;)

As per tips, they're the same worldwide (T15 series). Only the transformer (110 or 220V input, 24V to the heating element) and plugs differ.
