The local dealer was pretty amused by the fact that I wanted a BM869s and in the end he congratulated me and said that I would be the first person to buy an 869s from them for personal use. :-DD BTW, an 869s after taxes would come to around 325 USD here in India. :)

Yikes. I wouldn't pay that for it.

I wonder how much a Fluke costs there? :o
But yeah, I'm sure Brymen (or somebody else) will do worldwide shipping and you can pay European prices.

I have India disabled on my DHL system, can't remember why, so I did a quote check and got this :scared:
And the quote was AU$132 for shipping!
Fungus:
Welectron will ship it for 19.9 Euros.
I don't know what Indian customs will make of it though.
(probably "a meal" - DHL are very diligent about making sure they get their cut of any customs processing)

Hang on, I just realised that I wasn't logged in when I made that quote. Will have to check.
Oh, much better!
nubinstanley:
If I try purchasing from Welectron, the price of the meter is shown as 175.63 Euros (no VAT ? ???) and after shipping/discount, the price is around 192.02 Euros (231 USD - all currency conversions from google).
Including customs duty (as per calculation from a govt. website) : 295 USD (~27.7% duty)
But I somehow feel that the customs duty is gonna be higher. I remember doing similar calculations when I imported my 3D printer from Europe. I finally had to pay around 40% customs duty!! Well, the HSN codes are going to be different, but... who knows !!
With 40% duty : 323 USD
Lowest offer from local dealer : 308 USD
I can also source it locally for a lower price than this if I choose to not get a bill. I am not comfortable with this anyhow.
As long as the meter is not manufactured in India, I would assume that the price structure would look something similar. :) Well, thats how much I have to spend. :P This is also true for the Rigol/Siglent DSOs. :D
